Which Free Agent Addition Will Prove To Be The Best?

my ranking

1.Mike Tolbert-FB from San Diego

2.Mike Pollack-Guard from Indy

3.Reggie Smith S-from San Fransico

4.Haruki Nakumara S- from Baltimore

5.Kenny Onatolu LB- from Minnesota

6.Chris Manno-WR from AFL??

Heres my take

Tolbert is the most recognizable name and best producer of the bunch, but don't know how much he'll see the field, but i'm sure Chud will come up with some good ideas.

Pollack adds good depth at guard and insurance if Silatolu can't start right away. Was probably signed with the intention of being a starter if we did not draft a guard.

Reggie Smith may be able to challenge Martin for the starting spot, at least take away Pugh's playing time.

Nakumara is hard to judge, he was stuck behind Ed Reed on the Ravens depth chart, but Rivera's latest remarks on him make him seem like more of a special teams addition.

Kenny Onatolu was signed for his special teams prowess. Only problem is we are stacked at LB, with Beason,Davis,Anderson,Kuechly,Senn,and Jason williams who was our top tackler on special teams last year. Do we go with lb's this year?

Manno-I just can't see him making the team at this point, but he will get his chance to shine in preseason and training camp.

1. Smith: Will take Martin's spot

2. Tolbert: Plays multiple positions and will start

3. Nakumara: Will rotate with the starters and improve ST

4. Onatolu: Will improve ST

5. Pollack: Will be good depth

Hoping Medlock gets added to this.

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
