So how does this "pre-FA" deal work? IF they agree to terms to sign, say, Sweat, can they announce anything?

i think you guys are forgetting that Reddick played here for 4 years and his option was not picked up. They also mis-used him and cost him potential for more success as a pass rusher.

Az did him no favors, why would he come back here unless it was the only team interested.

The Cards can negotiate terms of a deal but they can't officially sign a player like Sweat until the FA period officially opens. If the do agree on a deal then the agent or team will "leak" out the deal almost immediately to a reporter.

5 years younger , he has some upside, played ilb before switching to the outside
Hope he can have a trajectory like Kyle Van Noy
One is a legitimate starter, the other a role player. It's not like they signed Browning to a long term deal - we have him for 2 years. To pay an extra couple million for a legit starter seems worth it to me!

Different GM/HC/DC regime.

theoretically, legal tampering opened this morning at 9 AZ time

yet, Hasaan Reddick (to name one) negotiated a new deal with the Bucs in 5 minutes after legal tampering opened up

which is to say, there has been illegal tampering going on for quite some time ( and everyone does it)

You vastly overrate White. He's no better than guys like Dodson, Roberts, Kendricks and Spillane.
He is if you refer his stats and role. His stats comp to Spillane is earlier in this thread and there is no area where Spillane is really better.

Seriously, not only did he get used poorly and almost have his career end here, but the fans trashed him too. I wouldn't want to come back to AZ if I were him.
