To all chicken littles out there freaking out over no FA signings...

[Sam Mills Fan]

...Look at our roster, the one that just went 12-4 and won the NFC South, and name a flashy Day 1 free agent signing that was present anywhere on the team. Doesn't matter who the GM is, we build through the draft (Cam, Luke, Star) and sign bargain free agents. If you were expecting something different, you haven't been paying attention.

-Starts playing Macklemore-

[Billy Love]

That's how we roll.

[Growl]

So does this same defense consider the previous four seasons where we had the same mentality and fielded a poor team year after year after year

Just wondering.

and 4 million to spend. I am usually pretty patient but we need to get something going already

[pstall]

i don't mind getting torched but i gotta call it like i see it.

 

unless they make some serious upgrades this team finishes DEAD last in the NFC south.

 

there. I feel better now.

It's the 1st day of free agency and you're seriously saying that?

[Kuech the Sneak]

One day into free agency, stay calm everyone.

[Password is Taco]

We have no WR, OL, or DB thats pretty concerning

[TheNewStandard]

Didn't TD have major surgery, like 3 times?

N'mind, just STFU and go cry in your pillow while you get ulcers over losing Gross and some bargain bin band aid players while our dominant players continue to take up the slack and actually improve their play for the rest of the team.

What? You think every position has to have elite all-pro players for this team to make noise?

For f'l-sake, you bunch of pansy-azed f'ktards! We had, what, 7-pro bowlers and all of them are returning except for Gross and all you can think about is some bargain bin nobody's?

F''it, you nannies will never be happy. Go f'k yourselves and let us enjoy rooting for the real ballers on this team.

The current Super Bowl champs built through the draft and so are we. March always seems to be the time where Cleveland and Tampa Bay shine brightest, April is our and Seattle's time.

You know the old saying, "don't spend it all in one place"

 

[Sam Mills Fan]

I'd say the ratio of success between the draft and free agency is somewhere like 80%-20%. So people are freaking out because 5 hours have gone by on Day 1 of the part that means much less? We've added Cam, Luke, and Star in back-to-back-to-back drafts, let's see what happens in April.

[Zithers]

When we had no money last season Gettleman got us

 

Star Lotulelei, KK Short, Colin Cole, Wes Horton, re-signed Dwan Edwards

Chase Blackburn, AJ Klein

Melvin White, Drayton Florence, re-signed Captain Munnerlyn

Mike Mitchell, Quintin Mikell, Robert Lester

 

Which completely revamped our defense.

 

Maybe he'll do the same with offense this season... ? Though it will certainly be an uphill battle wit 3-4 OLmen retiring
