Post here. Pertinent free agent signings can still have their own thread. Anyone who replies with a Q, because something is buried in this thread should blah blah AIDS tree. [Reply]
Buffalo isn’t done. Former #Panthers first-round DT Vernon Butler is headed to the #Bills, source said. He gets two years for roughly $16M on a deal that can be worth up to $18M. Of that, $9.3M is guaranteed. Another Carolina to BUF connection...
The #Seahawks are signing former #Steelers OL B.J. Finney to a two-year, $8 million deal, source said. Versatile interior player who has 13 career starts.
Carl Nassib goes the #Raiders for 3 years and $25M, source said. He gets a whopping $17M fully guaranteed at signing on a deal that has a max value of $28M. https://t.co/86qvPQnba1

They had zero pass rush against us last season and we torched them for 68 points in two games; they need to figure out how to generate a pass rush to help their secondary, which is just maybe a little better than average. Not a top-10 group for certain. So try to move Pat/disrupt his timing. It worked for the Niners for about 50 minutes . . . [Reply]

Nassib, like Collins, is an average pass rusher though.
They paid a nice chunk to two guys that aren’t going to make a huge impact on their pass rush while also taking a significant amount of snaps from their young guys (Hurst, Ferrell, Cosby).
For these moves, they should’ve just been very aggressive with Jones and pulled it off. [Reply]

Okay, I'm not that up on either of those guys, so I'll take your word for it. However, are they better than whatever they had last season?
And Mayock was never getting Jones. Veach and Andy would never have traded Jones to the Raiders. Only Billy O'Brien is that stupid. [Reply]
I want more touchdowns. I wish our defense wasn't so good last year so Jimmy G would have completed that deep pass in the 4th quarter so we could score again.
