interesting...I like that we didn't pay him long term. Let him be hungry

Haven been following, why only 1 year?

Been a solid FA this year with exception of haven't got a guard yet. No huge financial splashes except Fleener (spell?) somewhat. But we have pulled in some good players.

@AdamSchefter: New Orleans Saints are signing former Rams DT Nick Fairley to a one-year deal. Fairley mulled decision over weekend, informed teams this am.

frick yea!!

Nice. This shouldn't deter us from a DT in the 1st or 2nd, but this definitely helps in case there are better players at other positions available with those picks.

I love this pickup. 1 year prove it deal and now we can go BPA in the draft

Love this signing! Maybe with Laurinaitis signing here it helped a bit. DE, G, and WR in the draft and that's a helluva offseason.

His overall on madden is 90 as of now. Just watch how it will be bumped down to 82 just because he signed with us

1 year deal keeps him motivated. I like it, its a good pickup. He can rush the QB.
It shouldn't effect what we do in the draft too much. We will still pick a DT #1 if he's the best player.
Although I do wonder if it would make us slightly more likely to take a player like A'Shawn, who can take on two blockers, over a player like, say, Rankins, that is more of a pass rusher.

I like it - hopefully he balls out this year and makes us good

As someone who is not a fan of A'Shawn at 12, I am afraid of this. I do think he can become a good 2-down player, I just don't think he's worthy of the 12th overall pick.

A) Would he have played less motivated if he was on a 2 yr deal?
B) I don't think a player on a 1 yr deal keeps us from drafting a similar style player.

#Patriots knew Friday that Nick Fairley was headed to NO, so they secured Terrance Knighton's visit today. But #Redskins want him back, too.

For the PFF fans:
Disappointed that it's only a one year deal. Would have liked taking a chance on a three or 4 year dal.
