I am not going to pick a part that whole list, but Manning was not a really a foundation player signing for Denver, he put them over the top.

What? Manning was a franchise QB for them for two years. That's necessary to succeed in the NFL, unless you have an incredible defense. He wasn't an ancillary piece for them until 2015. Prior to that, he was a key component of their team.

They had a solid team and brought Manning in to take them over the top. The foundation of a solid team was in place.

They won a weak division with an 8-8 record the year prior and their offense was the driving force behind their appearance in Super Bowl XLVIII. You can say that team had a solid foundation in place, but not while simultaneously saying this one doesn't.

Bears waived DB Tracy Porter. Any use here for him?

They also had Demaryius and Julius Thomas and Eric Decker, giving PM good players to work with on the outside.

Yes.
This is the kind of vet CB signing I would expect Ballard to make. Cap or surprise cut of a guy who has started a lot of games in the NFL, has 21 PDs over past 2 seasons, is only 31 years old and will be pretty cheap. He has played a lot of press coverage in his career. He would be a great 1 year insurance policy as a marker for a highly drafted rookie to have to come in and beat in order to become the CB2. There will be others as the off season continues but I hope we sign Porter or someone like him who can give solid service and be someone that highly motivated rookies can work to beat.
