Thanks! I doubt they'll do any big money signings but it sure looks as if it would help them out tremendously to cut Studebaker and extend Eric Berry.

$10 million for Berry is an eyesore. I doubt Hali would extend and renegotiate.

Who you looking at Dane?

I'd sure like to see Tavon Austin with Charles, Bowe, Avery, Fasano and Moeaki.
I would love to see that.

Poe can play every position on the DLine and all the 3 downs.


now we still have to see if he develops into a good player, but the ability is there
Basically, he's not going to go play every down on long drives. You have to have some depth on that line. We don't. It's a need.

Oh, in free agency? Off the top of my head, Brad Jones, ILB from Green Bay and Rey Maualuga, ILB from Cincy.

Dansby if its reasonable.

Dansby would be a stop gap.

Cut Studebaker and sign Osi or Seymour with that same contract.

I am hoping for a trade down and a second round pick being involved and getting Arthur Brown.. Would love an ILB who can cover

O.city 03-14-2013 04:33 PM
If we could trade down a time or even into the early teens again, acquiring some picks, I'd love to take Arthur Brown.

Walterfootball's take on this acquisition:
Chiefs sign CB Sean Smith (3 years, $18M; $11M guaranteed): B- Grade
The Chiefs have overpaid once again. Sean Smith is a solid No. 2 cornerback. He is not a No. 1 as Kansas City seems to think. There's no way he deserves $6 million per year and $11 million guaranteed. I understand that the Chiefs wanted to add a corner to contend with the Broncos and all of their receivers, but that doesn't mean they should throw tons of money at the first defensive back willing to sign with them.

Then again, this is from the guy who assigned a C+ and D grade to the re-signings of Bowe and Colquitt, respectively, and who has previously graded LeRon McClain and Kelly Gregg as "A"s. So take it with a giant grain of salt. Like, the biggest grain of salt ever manufactured.
Screw that guy, if Al Harris successfully lobbied for him, thats pretty much good enough for me.

They're nearly identical players and good friends... Al/Emmit will know exactly how to coach him up.

And you cant coach that size, a 6'3 215 corner is MONSTERISH and RARE, he's the perfect foil for a guy like Demaryus Thomas and the other huge receivers out there.

Brown was a great cover ILB in college, who's got lead in his pencil and produced at a high level. He was a damn all American, IIRC.

O.city 03-14-2013 05:05 PM
The pass rushing market is barren in free agency money wise. I'd venture to say that neither of those guys get too awful much.

Micjones 03-14-2013 05:08 PM
LOVE the signing.

About 55% of the passes thrown his way in 2012 were completed.
He surrendered 6 TD's.
Not as physical as you'd expect a guy his size to be in run support.
Not a ballhawker (though he has good hands).
Great combo of size/speed. Can struggle with smaller, speedy WR's.

Dorsey kicked ass and took names with that contract though.
And we're getting Smith in his prime. He'll be 26 when the year starts.

So they basically stalled a bit to quiet the Vontae tampering leak Tweet. They were on him all along.

Bye bye. I hope we play you soon.

Quote:
Most hated Dolphin since Ted Ginn. Good riddance.
I said this earlier when we were first interested in him, but he's just not a good player and is probably the worst signing of free agency so far. He's big, but he's soft, not fast, has bad hips, and can't tackle.

If you wan't him to guard a slant he can do that just fine, but anything that causes him to turn his hips and he's ****ed.

There are a lot of questions about Brown, the first being his size (or lack thereof), production other than this past season and injury history. (He's been nursing that shoulder for a long time now.)

He's a 43 ILB or Weakside LB. I don't see him playing inside in a 34 as a Mike.

Many people not like Go to Hell's negativity, but he's right about this. He's made 2 good catches that pop out to you, one in college and one in pre-season in his rookie season. But the rest are just average INTs that any of us could've caught, and the rest were dropped.

He might have more INTs if he wasn't actually being burned by the WR the whole time.

He did play in multiple formations. Thats why people know he is very good in press coverage and stinks in zone. We will be running press coverage. That is why he was a hot commodity. The dolphins are wanting run zone more so didnt have a use for him, even though they wanted him back.

He was moved to Nickel Corner because he struggled in every facet of his game, he only played boundary corner last year because the Dolphins traded Vontae Davis.

He is absolutely terrible in zone, but he isn't exactly Darrelle Revis in man either. He's not physical, and has bad hips. If we move him to safety it's the only way I"ll justify this signing.

The guy is a big pussy.

He better not be playing safety.

FYI, I think he can actually be a decent corner at times. But Eric Warfield was decent at times. But his history of being absolutely roasted at the worst possible times is going to be an unforgivable sin on a team with a game manager at QB.

In 56 starts, he has 5 INT's.

You're oversimplifying what creates a dropped pass.
It's not a good hands/bad hands binary.

You act as though catching a ball doesn't also involve concentration.
Bowe has good hands, but he has bad habits that contribute to his drops.

Same is true of Smith.
Sean Smith will make an extraordinary interception from time-to-time.
Because he has GOOD HANDS. He struggles with consistent concentration and focus when he tries to bring a ball in.

And there's more to being a good corner than picking passes off anyway.

I'll answer for you since you dodged my question.
Brandon Carr had 6 INT's through his first 56 starts (1 more than Smith at the same stage).
Dallas should cut him now, right?

and miami fans should be crying they have no secondary because they would rather spend 200 million on two WRs and two LBs based of their one season samples

so they can run their mouths all they want their starting CB is nolan ****ing carroll and the LBs they overpaid for still dont hold a candle to ours

Nightfyre 03-14-2013 05:55 PM
Andy Reid is doing the same shit he did with the Eagles. Overpay a bunch of free agents and hope it works out. I can't think of many teams that have won using this tactic since the salary cap was implemented. I can also think of many who wound up in cap hell trying.

Retread QBs and paying out the ass for free agents is the Andy Reid way since McNabb left.

Nothing makes these experience happy on the board. If they got revis they would find fault with it.

DJ's left nut 03-14-2013 05:57 PM
An interesting note on Carr - he recently restructured about $12.5 million of his salary into a signing bonus that will be pro-rated into the remainder of his deal.

This is interesting primarily because it makes it that much more difficult for the Cowboys to cut him now. When we looked at his deal, it had the looks of a 3 year deal with numbers at the back end he probably won't get. With this restructure, to unload him after 2 years would accelerate an additional $6 million in dead money onto the cap in 2015 over what it already would have count towards.

In other words, it looks pretty damn likely that Brandon Carr might actually play out that entire deal at $10 million/season.

Is he worth that? I'm not so sure.

Brandon Carr had 6 INT's through his first 56 starts (1 more than Smith at the same stage).
Dallas should cut him now, right?
He hasn't made 1 extraordinary INT that has counted in his professional career.

And there's definitely more to a Corner than picking off passes, or Deangelo Hall would be the highest paid corner in the NFL, but Sean Smith is 6'3 and gets his hands on the ball, he just doesn't come down with them. And when you're leading the league in passes thrown your way you need to come down with more than just 5 INTs in your career.

It doesn't seem that 1 single contract has been expensive except Bowe's.

I didnt pay attention to Dallas or Carr. Is this Sarcasm or was he bad?

They especially overpaid for one who wasn't really that good last year.

No, this is not the tactic he used 2 years ago with the Eagles. He spent huge amounts of money on Nnamdi.

I'm sorry, I don't consider a basic one year deal for Robinson and a 3 year deal for Smith to be huge deals.

This is a 2-14 team, and the talent that we have isn't going to be young forever. Fill the holes with good free agents, and fix the rest in the draft.

I can't for the life of me understand the people crying about these moves.

They really didn't at first; his first 3 seasons weren't much more onerous than Routt's; they could've escaped after 3 years and been out around $21 million.

But now, if they want to do that, they're going to take one hell of a shot in dead money. They may well have to eat it.

Shortsighted restructure, IMO.
