It looks like we are just looking at resigning a few of our key guys, but not making any big moves in free agency. Is that the plan?

Kind of a contrast from last year.

But its pretty early, I will calm down.

I'm waiting for the #2 wide receiver or maybe Keim is cooking up another move.

4 years 84 million for Kirk? Good player, holy crap that seems WAY too high?

So the teams in Florida are saying we think Kyler Murray is massively overrated and was being carried by Edmunds and Kirk!

I'm a huge Chase fan his ability to get extra yards on 3rd down will be missed, but too much money given his injury history. Kirk, I like him, he drives me nuts, I can't believe the Jags paid that much. He'll have some good games early and they'll be saying see we are the smartest guys in the room, and then nagging injuries, big drops and by the end of the 2nd year of the contract they'll likely be saying ok now we get why the Cards were offering what they were. Good player, not THAT good.

Bringing back the band, but worse? Saw we paid Gardeck, state TV is trying to sell this as a Chan replacement?

Granted, he was coming off of an ACL, but Gardeck was really bad last year.

The biggest deal I want keim to make is a trade for label Collins before Dallas releases him.
We need that dude.... it greatly increases your confidence in starting a rookie guard if he is between hudson and Collins

Can't wait for all the upgrades! Seems like a lot of the same guys sticking around, and some of our better players on the way out.

"With the potential departure of Chandler Jones as a free agent, Gardeck helps with the numbers at outside linebacker. He joins Markus Golden, Devon Kennard and Victor Dimukeje on the roster."

Seen this strategy many times before, we're almost assured a downgrade at the position. By any standard, sans any big addition, this is likely one of the worst OLB rooms in the NFL.

Gardeck based on his play last year seemed like a one year prove it guy, I'm surprised he got a 3 year deal. Not sure how you expand on the role of a 230 lb OLB.

He's the same size as Haason Reddick.

I don't know what you were expecting.

Have you not seen our cap situation? Only hope at this position was always the draft.

Ha, my expectations are appropriately low. Chan isn't very good, but his replacement is likely to be worse.
