we have serious needs. starting qb, SS, G, #2 WR, and LB depth/ #1. We have the money and only 6 picks in the draft. Why is there no activity in FA? I read of no rumors or scedualed visits either. Whats going on here? why no activity?

But, but, but.... being aggressive in free agency might contradict Buddy's assertion that we have talent.... we just need to "coachem up".

this is why i wish nix woulda called it quits and whaley stepped in this year. seems like a hungry to win do what it takes and spend money young type of guy. then again i just try to stay optimistic and hope something big is in the works. somethings gotta happen, theres to many wholes to fill.

There's a lesson to be taken away from both the content of the thread, and this post.

It's three identical threads of a dozen more identical threads and a precusor of another dozen such threads until we sign somebody else! C'mon Buddy, save us from these threads. Sign someone, anyone.....a kicker, punt catcher.....anyone!!!!!

Yeah I have been posting this very same thing in the shout box. I am not one of those people who freak out if we don't pursue every top FA or don't sign someone the first day either. But this year, we have serious holes at key positions of QB WR TE LB OG and S with only 6 draft picks this year. There are a lot of value FAs out there signing for very reasonable deals and we just don't seem to even be trying to schedule visits. We have the cap room too. It's like they want to wait and pick from what's leftover rather than actually pursue some guys.

 

We need a G, so why aren't we bringing in someone like Moore?

We need a WR, so why didn't we explore Welker, Amendola, Alexander, or Gibson?

We need a QB, they all suck, so I get no activity here.

We need LB's, they singed Lawson (which was great) but that's not enough. Why not bring in some vets like Dansby?

We need a TE, Keller just signed for a measly 1 year deal...why didn't we explore him or a Fred Davis?

We need a S, and there are some solid value guys still left yet no reported movement.

 

We need to fill a lot of spots right now, and of they grab some solid guys before they are gone this team could still be competitive next year. But if we just plan on picking through the scraps and then depend on 4th round picks and later or even UDFA rookies to fill the rest out then we are in for a long rebuilding year.

No, there's not.

 

That when you freak out because things are moving too slow and ignore common sense you look foolish publicly? Both his content and execution? Just me?

Must make for a interesting call. "Hi, this is Buddy Nix. We have no one to throw to you and no one to block for you but dadgummit, we'd sure like you to come play for us."
