Yeah I’m not that excited about the signings as everyone else.  But hey go Panthers!

O-line is improved, otherwise kinda indifferent. Foreman also might be a sleeper pickup, Titans didn't really drop off when he was covering for Henry, though AJ Brown was kinda going off in a couple of those games at WR

A traffic cone would be an upgrade over last years Oline. It’s simply not possible that position group hasn’t improved with these signings

Most of these guys are on one year deals and you need to fill out a roster, I'm not expecting them to be stars

Offensive line is a weak link prospect, adding solid guys across the board raises the level of play. Seems fine to me, the team needs to find their star players, the big money guys, in the draft.

Wilson was a much better run defender with KC than Jax which probably is a a testament to that team overall.

I live in KC and watched him a fair bit. He played a Sam type of position and wasn't great. It helped that Anthony Hitchens made him look better by being so bad.

Our line adds are pretty good. The rest fill pretty weak areas. Not to mention we extended Moore and Jackson. Add that to the FA list and it looks pretty good.

Those are pretty normal PFF grades. No big deal. The other 10 players around each of these dudes will hopefully put them in the green. 
 

1 LB, 1 more Edge, one more OL, one more IDL. Let’s go. I want Barnett from Philly.

Not all pro but big improvement over last year.

I think someone got  their mouth taped up.

No we suck again. Pff is garbage

I hope we aren’t done with MLB. 

Schobert could be an option

The 2 OL:  Huge upgrades.  Going from suckass to above average is great.  Wish Bozeman were on a 3-year deal, but that will come.

The S:  I am concerned that he is going to play free safety when his is much better vs the run (or I would assume, in the box).  His 58 grade in coverage is concerning.

The P:  Getting worse since 2013, but is average of late.

The RB:  Entering his prime and he will be liked.

The DL: Situational pass rushing DT from the 3 or 5 tech.  If we ask him to do more, we get burned.

The LB:  Not impressed.   Maybe in our scheme he can be good, and I am convinced that I could have suited up and played in front of Carter.

The WR:  Camp fodder.

OVERALL:  We helped 40% of the offensive line (going from bad to above average).  We helped the run game with Foreman--he is going to beast.  We are better at S because Woods is better than Burris.  Beyond that, we replaced the quality of players we lost.  I still think this free agency was successful if we can add a third OL--free agency or draft.

I'm not meaning to dog the signings themselves here since this looks like an actual NFL-caliber FA strategy vs what we saw last year, but I wonder how/if they plan on addressing improved run defense in the front 7. Neither Ioannidis nor Wilson were/are particularly strong in that regard.

Exactly my concern.
