We have signed a few guys that are seemingly bank breakers to some fans for defensive line and the O line.
Take a step back in the way back machine
Remember when we dumped our secondary and were looking for a QB initially?
We had just about everyone that was available come thru here, drafted heavy in some positions and let them compete and see what kind of team mate they were, JP Losman, Terrell Pryor, Charlie Whitehurst, Matt Flynn, and many others, brought DB's that were vets in to see if a second chance could ignite them, guys like Blackman and Winfield, what about RB's till we got Lynch?
They sign in numbers or make a trade to use the odds to find a player that fits what they want, same on the D line with Clemons, how many of us were going what the hell initially.
They are using the same method on the Lines this year, would not be surprised at heavy drafting on the lines either.
We had 250 transactions that first year and a whole lot the second, it tapered off after that but the process is still the same for position groups I think, as much as everyone is worried about cap numbers I think Pete and John have shown that the plan they have works. They may cut someone and bring them back cheaper as we seen with some players, nothing we see today is going to be what is finally on the roster come September, the money spent is not what it appears and what we will pay come September. Fun to speculate and all but I am not going to worry about things now, we don't have Ruskell or Behring making decisions, or Baalke
Those that are worry warts will only get gray younger at this point, and probably much ado about nothing. When we get to cut down week 4 in pre season I will be right in line with everyone wondering what the front office is thinking if things look less then promising.
