Seriously, TC. The door is THAT WAY ============>

I too wanted a few of the guys whom were signed by other teams.

However, we did not win the bidding battle in some cases and in other cases, Ballard was not interested in them. Same story every season.

Long way to go until we play any meaningful games. Lots of moves to be made.

So far, I like the draft pick trade, I like re-signed AV and I like the Ebron signing.

I am neutral on the D-lineman signing. I don't see a ton from him but if the coaches do then great; I did not think much of Woods signing last year and was dead wrong on it because he was excellent.

I am negative on cutting Hankins.

Everything else? I was not a fan of signing any other of our free agents early. Let them test the waters and see what happens. None were irreplaceable. Moncrief at possibly $11m next season? Pass.

The first phase of free agency is to overpay for guys whom can fill a hole or two on your team. Rarely is it for building your team around.

We are many holes away. Ballard will find good guys over the next week to 10 days. We will have less holes to fill in the draft than we do today. Keep patient.

But, seriously, your post porn over the past hour to say the same thing in every thread got old after the first one.

Door is THAT WAY.
