You're on a roll today.

Draft not included, I think the offseason was break-even.

I think you have to include the draft.

I do? I was making a point about the moves without the draft. Like last year, we were improved greatly not counting the draft.

I guess I misunderstood you. I count the draft because it is an offseason event.

Same old threads for the last 3 days. It's freakin boring in OBD.

I do too. I'm just pointing out the FA signings and losses.

[Jan Reimers]

They forgot at least Morris and Polk as players lost.

Seriously, we didn't need to sign Big Name Fa's this offseason. Good to great coaching could of taken us to the playoffs LAST year, with the talent we had.
I see it as:
Gibson is way better than Moore.
Vincent is an upgrade over Winfield.
Shelton is a slight to moderate downgrade to Gash.
Villairial breaks even with RB.
Coaching should be a HUGE upgrade from last year.

Vincent is a downgrade in my mind. We lose tackling for better hands. A loss in my opinion especially if we stick with our backed off corner scheme.

O-line coach was added as well..

Whats his name again??

I would think you would almost have to play Vincent off. He is slower than Winfield too.

Antoine Winfield

There isn't too much of a difference in the tackling numbers.

I agree 100% that coaching will make a HUGE difference this year. If we had this staff last year, we would have been in the playoffs, no doubt about it!

for the second year in a row,we didn't address the Center position.
