I think the Skins have upgraded the most so far. The 48 million lost in the uncapped season was a blow, but I think they are on the verge of drafting a francise QB.

Tampa- Hit a homerun with Jackson and in running for Nicks.

I think they overpaid for the recievers they got but it could work out for them

Overall it seems like a high percentage of the league got better so far in free agency, atleast on paper which just shows how deep the talent pool is nowadays

They must really think Garcon is ready to kill it. Seems like a ton for a guy who has 16 tds in his career and never gone over 1000 yards (I realize he was close this year, just saying).

True. But last year I had Philly in the Superbowl after the moves they made.

I quit buying into the "how many Superstars do you have?" and more into how much chemistry these guys have. I actually think the teams that makes the fewest moves, only addressing severe needs and has a decent draft will do better than a team that brings in 6 of the highest price free agents. Even if said team was already on the verge, for some reason.

Bears have come up with a new strategy, get as many QBs as possible, because fixing the O-Line is just too expensive

Speed is a commodity and Garcon has it.

He did pretty well with a shitty QB this year, so I imagine they feel he can flourish with someone with actual talent playing the position.


eta: Not defending the move. He only got slightly less money than DeSean, which seems a little silly.

You'd be surprised, his shitty deep play was just as bad with Manning as it was with Painter.

He was really bad the year before last. But last year he showed potential.

If he comes cheap, I wouldn't mind.

A middle of Spikes, Chung, and Landry would be pretty terrifying from a big hits department.

Yeah, I think Chicago will be a good spot for him now.

They will probably be more balanced, and give more max protect, etc.

I actually felt bad and had an iota of respect for Jay Cutler last year because of the beatings he took.

Max protect would bring joy back into my life, because I can make fun of his autistic arse again.

Would be oddly excited about this. It might out more of a mean streak in our defense and it cant hurt to have that kind of talent back there

I really wish all the good safteys werent tagged though

Brandon Meriwhether is getting a lot pf attention around the league, good luck with that one

The first comment was about Garcon, FWIW.
