And, it does not have to be the way I thought/hoped it would go. I thought we'd tag  Tee, sign Reader, take an OT #18, and sign a vet S, cut Scott, and make a play for 1 more significant FA (DT, bridge OT, TE, CB4, RB, IOL). 

We tagged Tee, OT at #18 looks more likely by the minute, we got the vet S, we cut Scott. 

But of the guys we have signed/tagged/tendered, most were backups last year. That is a fact. I did not have that on my bingo card. 

Starters: Higgins, Stone, Adomitis. 

Reserves: Moss, Gesicki, Browning, D. Sample, ADG, T. Williams, Ford. 

If we didn't want to pay Reader, then pay a CB. Or at DT/3T. Or a RT. Or a TE. Or a G. Something. 

That's the part that get's me.  If they were weary of signing DJ again, why didn't they go after someone else from the get go?  We see that they are interested in a CB, let's allow that to play out.  I'm sure that they have "irons in the fire".
