We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

Not saying it necessarily means anything but if Twitter is showing most recent follows first, Weddle was followed after Collins so it could be a recent follow despite buddying up at the Pro Bowl. [Reply]

Hill was hanging out with Weddle at the pro bowl [Reply]

Word.

Fuck that guy. Fuck his talent, too. I don't WANT another guy like that on this team. He's a fucking RB that thinks he's bigger than the team. We need some depth at RB and we'll find it. But having a "superstar" RB is a luxury, not a necessity. [Reply]

But that’s assuming Berry even gets released, which appears to be wishful thinking at this time.
I think it's just time. There's no way that anyone can realistically look at Berry, how much time he's missed, the issue with his heel and then how much he's making....and be ok with him "testing it out" next season. If we're this close to a championship....we can't be counting on a guy getting paid that much money and doing this "day to day" shit all next season.
You're already looking to trade Ford and Houston. You might as well rip the bandaid all the way off, eat the dead cap this year and get some different pieces.
Trading Ford, trading/cutting Houston and then cutting Berry, Sorenson, Murray and Ragland gives this team $44 million this season and $98 million next season. That's more than enough money to work with. [Reply]

I 100% think it’s the right move, I just don’t know if I’ll believe it’s happening until I see it.
And I know Berry’s dead cap + Collins + Weddle would be a lot to commit to the safety position, but I feel like they’ve gotta get better where they can. It’s the one position that they could take from huge weakness to dominant strength in the FA period alone..
I’d load the fuck up at safety and target CB, edge rusher, interior OL through the draft. [Reply]

I would grab Weddle and Collins, trade Ford for a 2nd round pick and then try and flip one of our 2nd rounders or a 3rd for a CB like Rhodes. [Reply]
