Not much except we signed Bruce Campbell to play Tackle. According to JSteelz, Graham agreed to the Bills contract while at Redskins Park. Thats embarassing and should not have happened. Antonio Smith is currently at Redskins Park and its rumored Ritche Incognito is visiting as well. Ryan Clark allegedly visited today but nothing happened.
Tomorrow, Anthony Spencer is visiting.
While I think Day 1 was effective, Day 2 was pretty bad. Too many names flying off the board and no movement for us. Its not that we aren't signing alot of players, its that we are dumpster diving and don't have any significant visits scheduled. Why isn't Ziggy Hood, Captain Munneryln, Brandon Spikes or Chris Clemmons visiting?
I am fine with our approach of not going after high priced FA, but going after washed up players is not the answer. Last year we complained about not having any cap space, now what is our excuse?
Free Agency is not over, but too much talent is being grabbed and we don't really appear to have a strategy. We had a terrible defense and have done nothing to address it. Siging Hall, Orakpo and Riley simply gets us back to what we were last year, a terrible defense. Roberts and Lavauo will help, but the team is wrecked and coming off a 3-13 season.
I believe we must build through the draft but the problem is that Allen doesn't draft well and his teams in Oakland and Tampa Bay clearly show that. I pray Brown, Smith and Campbell pull a rabbit out of the hat because we will have to rely on the draft to fill the holes and get us back on our feet.
I would hope we would sign at least 3 more starters in FA because we can't find that many in the draft. Hood, Spikes and Munnerlyn would be great fits and help improve that defense.
