A lot of action happening. The big expensive names going fast. You know Gettleman will let the dust settle I mean you got guys who have been mediocre at best getting huge deals... Torrey Smith $5 mill a year.  Robert Woods 5 year 39 mill... Gettleman is waiting and gonna sign Victor Cruz who is more reliable than both.

Lets just R-E-L-A-X.

I agree with you, some serious coin thrown around on guys who are just OK. That's usually why the Jaguars and others stay where they are. Drafting well beats FA every day of the week. That said, hitting on some FAs like Oher and Coleman certainly helped us in 2015. I hope Kalil plays well. It really could be huge for this year, along with the health of the entire OL.

Agree.  We as fans get pissed off because we go off of a lot of emotion and don't get to see the behind the scenes other than what is "reported" or starts with "sources say." 

Gettleman's free agency style does piss off a lot of people. But what we can count on, the dude has an eye for talent and knows what a dollar is worth.  fans freaking out over Ginn and Klein.  Ginn is a one trick pony with a high drop percentage and Klein is a good depth LB for us, probably a starter for them.  Can't knock a guy for signing somewhere where he can be a starter.

I do hope Kahlil pans out because it will be a great addition and help improve the line.

Gettleman isn't done guys. He is letting these mediocre teams spend a crap ton of money on OK players.  Only movements so far that pisses me off is the Patriots are somehow still getting better and making brilliant moves (it took a lot for me to type that)

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
