They even gave Brown, Webb and Miller multi-year deals which now count $5.333M in dead cap space. Last season's free agency was like striking out 6 consecutive times to end a baseball game.
This season they did a 180 and went for quality instead of bargain bin finds.
This just makes me feel more and more that the coaches, namely Taylor but all of them just were not prepared thouroughly
last year. They had to see what they had and then get rid of the weaknesses. Takes some time to really look at an entire
team and find out the exact weaknesses. While I wish they could of done more in retooling the O-line they cannot do it all
in one Offseason. Sure believe they figured out the weakness on Defense and addressed it big time.
Tackling and physicality were addressed at both NT and Linebacker.
