I will be god-damned if this isn't the height of efficiency right here.
Deonte Thompson and Joe Thomas for about $5 million or Tyrann Mathieu for $7 million?
No brainer.
29 year old receiver who two teams didn't like enough last year to keep around. This is a joke right? I'm guessing this is our Bryce Butler replacement but for fucks sake. I'm not sure he makes it out of camp.Welp, there goes Hurns.
I don't give a shit about Hurns. I am more concerned this stupid fuck franchise just gave a turd like this $2.5M contract, with $1M guaranteed.Welp, there goes Hurns.
And if he doesn't, $1M is flushed down the toilet.29 year old receiver who two teams didn't like enough last year to keep around. This is a joke right? I'm guessing this is our Bryce Butler replacement but for fucks sake. I'm not sure he makes it out of camp.
We can't just try to find gems in free agency. We have to instead scrape the gunk off the bottom of the barrel. I mean seriously. Of all the WRs we brought in, I'd rather have signed none.And if he doesn't, $1M is flushed down the toilet.
Don't forget, probably McClay too. Just horrific.Stephen Jones in action.
An affordable option for a non number 1. Efficiency aside, this guy is on a par with/possibly better than guys like Butler and Twill and looks to be a decent signing for this stage of the FA game. I don't call it 'done', but couple it with the draft, and its not bad for this train wreck of a passing game.He did have his best year last year. As for the 1 million, the vet minimum for a 7 year guy is 915000.

The first row of stats is Thompson, second is Watkins, third is Butler. Thompson costs 1 million guaranteed while Watson costs 30 million guaranteed.
This is the f'ing market, and all things considered I think we fared a lot better than KC.
There's either room for competition in our WR corps or there isn't. Draft picks are all gambles, and none of them know how to be professionals yet.
This was a very reasonable move.
He's a drop-in replacement for Butler and is competing for a better contract. That's what we need, given we're not going to find a Dez replacement outside of the draft.
I want Ryan Switzer's smug, comfortable ass either transformed into a significant contributor or fucking gone. I want Beasley, Twill, and Dez to raise their ridiculous 8.7, 10.7, and 12.1 YPC's or be gone.
Yeah I read it. You'd think we are getting a stud deep threat. But I'm over it. Hopefully he can give us Butler production while we draft some real recievers.
I don't give enough of a shit to cut and paste Broaddus' bullshit fluff piece.
Fluff like this makes me glad he blocked me
