I hope no one is truly panicking over these day one FA defections

[reddyuta]

Stephen Jones has repeatedly said what he is going to do,i dont think anybody should be surprised now or in the future.IN the long run it may be a good strategy but it wont help us us get to the playoffs and win now.

It's the same people every year. Nothing new.

Until we can find some legitimate talent of our own on defense, no free agents are going to band aid us to a Super Bowl.

A lot of these same people were also saying Prescott sucked. So, yeah.

 

[Alexander]

Your own fault for getting your hopes up. You should know better.

I did not expect a complete shut out. Not even a Jeremy Mincey to be had.

I wonder why we have failed for so long finding our own on defense? Thank goodness this is finally the one year all that changes.

Well, yeah. Jerry likes to gamble. Who knows if it changes this year.

It's our only shot, for better or worse. Probably worse.

A couple of FA's on rentals this year isn't going to make us draft better on defense.

 

[Bleu Star]

So y'all OK now?

T-Rex is back and we signed a corner. The plan is being executed. Step away from the ledge.

 

[Bleu Star]

Day one comes & y'all be schizo.

Day two comes & y'all be quiet....

Trust the process.

Surprise!!!

 

[Bleu Star]

This is called draft prep... These signings. TRUST THE #@$% PROCESS!

 

[Bleu Star]

Y'all crack me up.

 

[Bleu Star]

Man. Y'all got so eerily quiet. Could it be because our front office is executing their plan?

Did anyone actually jump or have you all backed off of the ledges now?

Terrance Williams and Bruce Butler resigned.. This keeps our WR corps largely in tact with the added bonus of having JWitt back for one more year. Look for Dak to excel with the likes of a healthy Dez, Cole, and TWill back in the saddle.

Nolan Carroll marks the beginning of the process of reimagining our secondary and he comes with a friendly FA deal. I love it.

Paea bolsters our DL rotation nicely... A very active pass rush specialist that will bring pressure up the middle. Love it!

The building blocks are beginning to fall into place.. (as expected)

Luv y'all even though some of you can be a little schizo at times.

We don't agree on everything but you're on point in this thread.

I love it when a plan comes together. It's not together yet but I like the early indicators.

Even brining T-Rex back.. He knows the system & is a decent second option. I still think they look to add a top offing WR in FA or late in the draft.

So these signings make us better than last year? Paea hasn't been very good in the past couple of years, Carrol re-imaging our secondary? Really? I guess you'll tell us how everyone selected in the draft will be a stud and day 1 starter, making this defense SB caliber. I don't disagree that we shouldn't be making a splash in FA, but you don't replace marginal players with less than marginal players and get better.

If by "now" you mean the next 5 years then .....

All part of the strategy sir and it is just beginning to take flight. You, along with many others that were more vocal earlier in the thread, felt as though all was lost because we didn't participate in the day one fire sale. Well.. As noted.. We are participating now. Keep your eyes peeled. They will eventually make even you proud of our reimagined defense.

Patience is always a virtue. I wouldn't have said that 10 years ago but the front office has made a believer out of me. I will continue to stress the importance of allowing the marathon to complete.

"The process" has had us with 20 years of no superbowl wins. When was the last time we were even in the conference championship? This FA is playing out pretty much how we thought it would. Let a lot of our talent walk and sign marginal players off of other teams. The Terrance William signing for his contract was a solid one. I'll give the FO props for that. Now they need to bring Claiborne back for maybe 3 years on a lower-priced contract.

21 to be exact...

It's really time for us to let that 21 year drought talk go. We've seen so much in terms of good times from our franchise over the years. We just have to trust that these incremental improvements that have been happening every single year will amount to reaching the pinnacle soon. I have faith we're close. Just have to fix the D which we've begun to do. I just fail to comprehend how anyone that watched our defense barely tread water and get carried by our offense over the past year or so has any issue with a real reimagining of our defensive set, personnel, and philosophy. Marinelli is going to get to grocery shop and I think he will help the powers that be select some outstanding groceries. Sue me for being optimistic.

I'll add-

This talk of "the process has gotten us zero SB wins in 20+ years" is malarkey.

Because the process we're employing now is clearly NOT the same process that was employed during Parcell's tenure and Wade's tenure. It's a different strategy.

If people want to find reasons to not believe, and to not give credit where credit is due, then oh well. I'm primed up to enjoy the ride ahead.

Doubters will be proven wrong once again (just like in 2014 and just like this past season).
