As of right now, this signing changes nothing. If we play now, we're still the worst D in the league.

You can only sign one guy before you sign the next guy.
The front office has already said they want two impact free agents and if possible, 3 starters from free agency. I don't think we're done yet... |

HUGE improvment. But that does very little to help stop teams from consistently completing the deep pass on 3rd and long. Right now our secondary is still one of the worst in the league...

I want Surtain as far as CBs go. Our 2nd round pick isn't worth my crap, so let it go.
OLBs...oh crap. That's not a good-looking list, IMO. Out of those, I'd go with Polley, only because Holdman is a folk hero here who is trying to die peacefully lol.

If we don't trade for Surtain we likely give up a 1st rounder in the draft and a huge contract to get one. If we make the trade we give up a 2nd and a huge contract. Either way, draft or FA, we're giving up big money and a pick to get a guy. The only main difference is that in Surtain we know what we're getting and only giving a 2nd, while a 1st round draft pick is a gamble and of course costs us a first as well..

At this point:
I would try to get Smoot in. Sign a solid veteran OLB. Look for a June 1 cut to be picked up here. I would move up in the draft to pick up DJ or draft a CB depending on which OLB is signed. Draft CB in the second or move up and take a DE depending on what happened in the first round. |

Our secondary IS clearly the worst in the NFL and probably among the worst in the history of the league. How is Warfield doing in jail? Bartee is still drawing a check? Dexter still on the roster...? Average at best safeties. Some of this can be remedied through the draft. If we're smart, we wait on Surtain and perhaps something can be done on draft day. We may need that second round pick to move up to get Johnson from Texas...who is the defensive stud from this draft, IMHO. |

That 2nd round pick has value, even with the Chiefs' propensity to pick complete duds in that round. |
