There is a Moose at 3rd I will say when you guys signed Mitch Schwartz I pounded my fist on the table. I honestly thought that was the best signing of day 1 in FA. I love the way that guy plays. He is the one guy this past year that made Von Miller look human the entire game. So kudos to the Chiefs for getting him.
cd, we will welcome him with, with Mack and Irvin and Miller and Ware, along with the Bolt D players.. Welcome to the AFC West Schwartz!!

Well I can about promise you he will say "Bring them on!" He graded out as the 2nd best RT in the entire league and was both great pass and run blocking. Like I said best signing of the day of any team and it hurts me to say that about a division rival.

You are right it is my opinion just to me he was the best OL player available this year. I've watched him play all season and when we lost Brock Osweiler I just kept thinking "Well maybe we can get Schwartz now and make our OL dominant!" I mean there was talk that he was having a better year than Joe Thomas the best LT in the league. So yeah I really am high on him and I know a bunch of OL scouts that I talk to throughout the season are as well.

But then again Free Agency especially the 1st day always causes a lot of emotions every which way. They put out a stat today though that 532 players changed teams during FA last year. Only 4 made the Pro Bowl during the year that had the most players ever make the Pro Bowl because they couldn't get anybody to go. So should show just how overrated FA can be in actually upgrading your team. The Broncos really lucked out when Talib, Ware, Ward, Sanders, Manning, Vasquez all worked out really well in FA. That is very rare.

I was a bit surprised he was left out and about. With the OT market having the pay dichotomy between LT and RT's, grabbing a top RT in FA is actually a pretty good value, typically. Kind of shocked the Browns let him leave so easily; pulled an offer even. The more I look at the contract, and the more pleased I have to say I am. Drafting a guard is a much easier task than an OT, so that helps quite a bit despite losing Jeff Allen. Really a very good signing that looks even better when examining the nuance and context it exists within.

That guy is a good player real good, and will help KC out big time man.. FA works when the players fit what teams are doing.. That guy will fit what KC is doing, and they have the weapons to where that guy will make a huge impact for them..

Yeah when I look at that contract I sit here and just can't believe the value. Considering 1st day of FA everybody seems to overpay the Chiefs really did luck out at getting him for what I would consider a very below value contract. I thought he would get closer to $10 million a year.

I also really liked the Chargers deal for Travis Benjamin. I thought he would get a lot more as well. So two very big steals to division rivals. Time for Elway to get busy.

So it looks like it 's come down to the Steelers and RAIDERS for the right to sign Weddle, so the rumors say..
Both teams making their pitch.. Let's see who gets him..
