I want to hear less "bringing in for competition"

and more "he is a stud and will start immediately for us"

I don't mind the competition, but you are right a couple nice starters would be nice ... :cool:

Culture-changing signings?

#Falcons are signing former #Chiefs first round pick DT Dontari Poe, per @ProFootballTalk

At this point, they are bringing in guys who "might" be okay on the D-Line and throwing them at the wall hoping a couple of them stick. It is obvious that they don't want to pay much for their bodies at this point.

D-Line really cannot be a focus of this draft. LB and Secondary are in much worst shape than the D-Line.

I am not saying that our D-Line is good but they at least have the bodies that MIGHT make it a good D-Line. Guys like Anderson, Langford and Jones should be good but due to injuries, none of them are dominate.

We have two younger guys who have shown flashes (Ridgeway, Parry) but one of them might be in the big house starting this upcoming season.

Bringing guys in like Woods and Hunt (and perhaps Jenkins) is a way to make sure that whoever rises to the top will at least be NFL average (hopefully) of the mass of bodies that we might have there.

Low risk, medium reward seems to be the theme of much of the Colts free agency focus this off-season. Schwenke, Mingo, Hunt and Woods are all in that category. At least they are all O-Line or Defensive Front 7. Build up the trenches.

Sheard, Simon and Locke are the only guys we have signed as "starters" so far.

Cheers,
