Re: free agency thread- matt cassel signed
Thank goodness Jennings signed. A bit expensive, but not horrible.
Hopefully they pick up at least one of the many available, solid defensive backs as well.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Re: free agency thread- matt cassel signed
Jennings was probably the FA receiver I wanted the most at the beginning of the offseason and I like the fact we were able get him 2-3 million per year cheaper than Mike Wallace. I don't think we have money for anyone else though unless we want to make some cuts.

Should be looking to restructure Jared Allen and Kevin Williams to free up some space.

Re: free agency thread- matt cassel signed
That would be nice but getting players to accept a pay cut isn't necessarily easy. Are we willing to cut K-Will if we get a DT in the first round?

Re: free agency thread- matt cassel signed
We still need to sign our draft picks with that money though, so realistically we're right up against the cap.

Re: free agency thread- matt cassel signed

signed seth olsen from the colts, for some oline depth (schwartz went to the chiefs)
he can both both some guard and tackle so that's good

A thread that's gone over 3 pages? It's been over 2 years since that happened on this board.

Lakers and Wolves sucking probably has a good bit to do with it. I'd much rather talk about the Vikings right now.

I saw rumors that the Vikings were still trying to restructure some vets. It would be great if they freed up some cash for one of those DBs, at least once they drop their asking price.
