Man we are hunkered down TIGHT!
A super reflexive knee tap kick to the bad signings last year? Simple economics? A laser focus on draft prospects? 'Singing Fingers' Brzez whizzing through calculations for reduction/streamlining, not addition?
Maybe we'll focus on the draft, then use the ol' Barrel of Monkeys approach during final cutdowns.
Pierre was our juiciest signing (let's face it, Murray was a marriage of convenience, with loaded shotguns at both heads - both would have looked like idiots for not making it happen).
As for as Pierre - a part time player / non-starter should never have their PFF or any statline compared to someone out there playing every down. Seems like a very savvy signing but our secondary is still sucking wind.
OL, DL, Secondary. Top four draft picks + plus some veteran fillers released after the draft and cutdowns ...
Wish we had a couple of nickels to rub together to find one or two solid veteran signings beforehand, to get the benefit of a full training camp.
We simply don't have much cap especially since we have to set aside roundabout $10 million. Most other teams have more cap, some a lot more, some a ton more. Agents and teams are waiting it out but we appear to be out of that race. We could backload but Brzez might be the lone voice saying they already kicked $39 million dollars worth of cans into 2027 and beyond to add to what was already there.
Guess we'll wait it out and sign some low-tier players, maybe after the draft and towards the end of the offseason as you say. Thought we'd sign 4-5 more FAs, maybe that should be 2-4. Or 0.
Yep, Pierre highest snap count in a season is low, just like Rodgers was.
