Man, I am probably one of the most negative people when it comes to my teams and I actually have a little bit of hope this year. No idea why though. The Ravens have basically dismantled all the important pieces to their team and other folks are overpaying to get that extra edge. Shoot even New England is looking more mortal now. I am kinda happy we aren't playing in the free agency pool this year.

Hindsight is a motherfucker. I wish we could have paid him more. I wish him well.

Welp...We will definitely be in the running for some secondary help in the draft. Hopefully we will have scouted well. Secondary help isn't looking too deep this year. Only thing I can say is that it forces us to develop who we do have, which is a good thing. The team should actually start trying to do what other teams have done and just go for draft picks instead of free agent signings. Too bad we don't have a first though (*sigh)

Hopefully the team finally learns its lesson with giving folks big contracts. They are paying a lot for somebody who isn't a Pro-Bowler. That money could have went to Alexander. Plus the cap is supposed to be getting smaller by the year. Gotta learn to be more frugal with money now. And Santana either really must love this team or he knows his worth to take another pay cut like that. In the role he is playing right now, I will definitely take the price.

Yeah I hope this man doesn't try to rush back. He's got his whole career ahead of him for that. He needs his legs. Not just for running either.
