re: We need to stop messing around and sign Streif

Every year free agency follows the same pattern. The first few days (less than a week) see a flurry of signings, with many teams overpaying for that year's position du jour. Then it calms down a bit for several days as veterans visit several teams and then decide whether to stay put or move. With the draft pushed back to May, the NFL's silly season just got longer.
