That'll beef up their secondary against the Colts a bit better.

Against the Colts? Who cares...against the Titans is what I'm worried about. Is Floyd enjoying his nap....it's been a few years since he's had some money to play with....do you think he forgot how this all works?
I'd say he knows exactly how it all works. The guys who sign early get overpaid as teams have to outbid each other.
That's the positive spin, SK, the negative is at the end only the crappy players are available
We're in no position to be overspending for FAs. None of them are going to put us over the top.Vigsted said:

...which is why there's all the talk about "mid-tier" FA's. I think I read somewhere (frontpage of this site, I believe, TJ) that Dave Thornton is in for a visit this weekend, right?
I'd say old Floyd's got his game face on.

Witherspoon would be nice, but I can see the Rams forking over big $$ for him, as they usually do for Free Agents.

the jags cant be serious....
they paid a nickel corner 32 mil, what a joke

Heck, I say we just go out and pay double the market for a couple of "big name" FA and shoot our wad on 2 players. Yep. That would work.

Yes, on a select few players, we should pay market value...whatever that is. For all we know, those "inflated" contracts we are seeing could all be like Andre Dyson's with Seattle....next year, they could be shown the door with minimal cap consequences.
The guys being signed today are getting big signing bonuses up front, unlike Dyson. There is no way they are getting cut next year.
As for paying market value, that's exactly what we want and you don't. You are asking the team to pay above market value to outbid other teams for the top players. We are in no position to do that right now.
