Here's a dumb question: If we sign someone, but cut them before the season, do they get paid at all? Or are they currently spending their time as an investment in hopes of getting paid once the season rolls around?

Why the hell not? His resume is somewhat impressive. Who else are we going to put in there as backup? Jason Belser?

They get something but I'm not sure what. It doesn't count against our cap though.

I was just looking through the list of available FA's today and thought Williams might be a good depth signing at Safety.

The transmitter's working...
"Way to go Carl."

They get nothing unless there is a signing bonus. Sometimes its as little as $25,000 sometimes its zip.

I thought some of their contract monies get paid for TC (not OTAs and the like). I did some digging and couldn't find anything for certain.

Just a thought? Could we possibly sign some offensive players in the near future? You know for dept and competition in training camp...

We are losing alot of talent on the offense and not replacing them..

Just wondering aloud...

You know, asking Tony to put a "T." next to "Gonzalez" because a guy named "Kiki" made the team would simply be wrong.
