Wait and see for me. I think his free agency hasn't stood out from what we've seen with Hurney the last couple years. Couple good value signings, a couple head scratchers that seem a bit of an overpay while also letting some contributors leave over fairly low salary amounts. But the draft is where you really build a team so I am reserving judgment until we see how that plays out. Really can't accurately grade things for a couple years.

Encouraged! At least he seems to be doing what he said he'd do as far as churning the roster, and he's doing it with future present and future budgetary concerns on his mind. He only extended Shaq and CMC because of what he inherited, saying that that type of action is basically a one-off. So, I'm just glad to see him mindful of the finances and their overall repercussions from year to year. I really like the Reddick, Perryman and Big Dan signings considering the circumstances. I think it also shows that he's mindful of the money and improvement of the team. We'll see how it goes in future offseasons.

As others have mentioned, it does kind of remind me of Gettleman's first offseason, i.e. signing a bunch of guys most people wouldn't know as depth or bridges.

I don't remember Gettleman signing this many in such a short time though.

DG waited for the market to cool. We had a bigger cap mess and the guys we ended up signing had to be cheap. Lots of late free agent signings. At least that is what I remember. Not sure if the market is the same this year, the cap sitation had something to do with that I think.

One thing that I still don't understand at the moment is why we pushed more cap space to next season.

I REALLY didn't like the restructures, but I would have preferred to take out lump rather than continue to kick the can.  Unless there is a trade for an established QB coming our way, I don't understand that move.

      Yes, but those guys aren't depth guard signings, they're likely going to wait and see who has injuries or players under performing and then sign there. I also think that if Ickey really is going to be able to play at some point this year, that's where our guard depth comes from.  As if he gets to the point of being active, we'd then have 3 LT's on the roster with him, Freeling, and Walker, gotta think one of them not named Freeling gets kicked inside if needed.

      lol imagine being Hill and this is what your coach thinks about you replacing a guy giving up over 4 goals per game.

      I don't think Tyreek is a bad player to play with on the field, for sure not in the same way that Diggs is, as he's a cancer on the field with how he acts, and wouldn't take kindly to being 2nd fiddle behind T-Mac. It's that Tyreek is just a terrible person who realistically shouldn't even be in the NFL, his insane athletic ability is why his off field transgressions have been overlooked.  If he was a WR3, no team would have kept him around, it was only that he was a 1st ballot HOF level talent that kept him around. Just zero interest in having a person like that around our young WRs, that's really all it comes down to for me with him. Again, if we were true contenders this year, that changes things and I'd rather bring in the best possible players and hope it works out.  But they're trying to build something here and to do that, you need high quality people, not just great talent.
