What is your goal, for us to win a SB or not have the "worst" QB? Check out the SB's the past 8 plus yrs. Serviceable doesn't do it. NOT EVEN CLOSE.

That's a selective, intelligent, careful fleshing out of the roster for a bargain at every position except Winston.

This is an A-.

Agreed.

Belcher is a weak link. 3rd ILB to play a role is fine for him.

Belcher has taken a step up with each succeeding season.

He's progressing at pace similar to Brandon Carr progress at CB, yet like Brandon Carr, there's always some dumbass that thinks we need to upgrade.

I agree with Direckshun.

This is the way you should use free agency.

Build your core through the draft and find key role players in free agency.

But we still need to fix the QB position.

Routt is a downgrade at corner. Not convinced Hillis wants to play football. Winston and Boss are good signings. Add Mike Tolbert and you have a pretty good haul. Its all trumped by a fail at bringing in a real QB.

Those who are worse should be backups, like Matt Cassel should be a backup. He is not serviceable. He doesn't get the ball to his receivers where they can get extra yardage. He goes from primary receiver to check down with no progressions between. He has a weak arm with no deep ball. He cannot move his protections to cut down on sacks. Not even close to serviceable.

Too early to tell. Plenty of time left in FA. I like it so far.

I am glad they signed Hillis for only a year... I am not convinced that he wants to play football anymore either, but I do think he wants to be paid following next season.

I'm starting to think it may well be possible for Tannehill to fall to us in the first, and there are still opportunites to get another qb. If Stanzi is not progressing as we hope, or its possible to get someone to replace Quinn I think you do it. The Decastro option will always be there. I think they will take another qb somewhere in the draft.

It must be viewed as a success. Not only did we sign depth and starters, the reports are that all of our injured players are coming back.

The only thing that really got boned is Routt over Carr, but I dont see how the team can be worse off overall.

Exactly... FA ain't over yet.

I really think you have to be smart in free agency by not going overboard.

I'd like to pick up Geoff Schwartz after these signings, but I wouldn't want to do much beyond that.

And if we do nothing else, I still think this free agency period has been a successful one.
