I was against signing Reid...

[t96]

But I’m thrilled! Our defense is now rock solid at every spot. Dalton threw for 300 yards and multiple TDs on Colin Jones alone. HUGE upgrade there. Don’t care what we paid now that the deal is done (but please be near vet min...) just happy we got a huge upgrade on Jones midseason. Let’s fuging go people. That was our only real need and it was glaring and we filled it with ease.

Why were you against signing him?

Injury concerns, his actual play on the field being less than the contract he was expecting (though that was speculation on my part and apparently wrong).

Getting signed by a team probably doesn't do much for proving the "collusion" that he and many seem to believe in so very strongly.

I hope for the best for Reid and the defense's performance.

Reid still has to prove he can do what he was signed to do but time will tell.

Good answer, same here.

I don’t care what they paid him this year honestly. We cleared up cap from Luke’s deal for a reason. It’s a 1 year deal. If he sucks, then he won’t be here next year or go against the cap. If he balls out, then we got a steal at safety for a year under $5 million. 

It’s not like we have tackles on the street that we can sign right now with that extra cap space that would be an upgrade over Clark and Moton

Better than Jones.  Better than Jones.  Better than Jones.  Better than Jones.

Still don't know that he'll make it a full one game without getting concussed. 

[Daeavorn]

I have also heard he has injury concerns and I've also heard he is more of a SS than a FS. But like other posters have shown, he can't be worse than Jones. But will he be worse than Tre Boston is the question I'm actually interested in.

It took a new owner IN WEEK 4 who has spoken publicly against trump. without Tepper he wouldn't be signed  I think it helps his case

"Injury concerns"

Who you think you're fooling?

If Tepper called Goodell and asked for permission then it’s collusion. Of course we’ll probably never know if he did or not

The fact that most of us were dying to get Tre Boston here should speak wonders. That we just need that level of play to be where we need to be. Reid is better than that.
