Since 2012, it's been an average of 9.4 days after the start of free agency when they have signed their first UFA off another team. pic.twitter.com/MT46dCamKi

...and my what a list that is.
Jason Allen
Josh Johnson
Jason Campbell
Pat Sims
Karlos Dansby
Andre Smith
Matt Barkley
I count 2 former Bengals (so much for "external"), 3 backup QB's (2 of them bad backups), a former bust that continued to bust and a washed up LB that we signed 5 years too late.

4 out of 5 teams on that list have much more to brag about than we do, including Dallas. Miami is only on the list thanks to the location and being a tax free state.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
