And Ronald Jones at 126 is the most insane thing I've seen this side of Levi Wallace. Seriously? There is nothing at all to indicate he's a better back than Gus Edwards. He damn sure isn't better to have around than Mark Ingram.

I guess I spent $138 throwing 12 years at Kemeko Turay, Ronald Blair and Tevan Bryan, but I did it precisely because I knew I'd dicked up my 4-3 and wanted a lot of young depth at DE to give me some options going forward. Those are 4 younger guys with significant upside so it made sense to me to lock in a DE4 rotation for 4 years with Armstead as the anchor.

But Kendricks and Ronald Jones? Yeah, Jones looked better in 19 than 18 but he still looked like shit, my dudes.

I think free agency is a blast. Lots of strategy involved, especially since the bidding is also linked to contract length.

I was in the middle of the battle for those defensive tackles - Andrew Billings, Michael Pierce, and later Jonathan Hankins. I just needed a rotational guy, so I kept figuring I'd get one of them. But apparently everyone needs a rotational guy and prices for all three kept going up. So I scoured the free agent list and ended up getting PJ Hall for a buck or something. He's probably not at the level of those other guys, but on a value basis I'm happy with it. I'll give him a one-year contract and if he performs I'll try to keep him.
