I was against signing Reid...

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
