that and its hard for him to stay on the field...he's been injured/hurt a lot lately.

 

His missed one game the past five years. He's just not listed as a starter.

Ballard had consistently noted that teams that “win free agency” typically do poorly during the regular season.   

 

Ballard is an amazingly disciplined GM.  

 

the last two super bowl winners have actually been pretty aggressive.  the eagles have always made headline moves, and they had high priced free agents on their super bowl run.  the patriots also make lots of moves, and they have been known to bring in expensive free agents too, when they have cap space

Honey Badger could break the streak

Besides the money I think the Honey Badger knew they weren't going much of anywhere in Houston with Luck in the division.

Didn't the Eagles sign outside free agents?

 If you followed this stuff at allhw can you blather this ___.
 There have been 8-10 starting safeties allowed to go to FA or Cut. LMAO

 

And how many of them have signed? I have been following so far...one S got 6/$84M and one got $4/27M (who couldn't even get a job last year). The positional value for S is obviously going up...much like G has.

 

Regardless, the point of my comment that you decided to % on for some reason...was me disagreeing with the idea that signing Collins somehow prevents WAS from being able to build a good defense. And it doesn't. It might not be my (or others) preferred method for doing it...but that doesn't mean he won't be a centerpiece for that defense and make others around him better.

And the Super Bowl runner ups, the Rams, were among the most active in free agency last year.

 

Having said that, I don't like my team to sign too many outside free agents. I prefer drafting well, developing players, re-signing them and signing a free agent here and there to complement the team.

Funcheese sucks.

There is multiple accounts saying that

[TomDiggs]

Honey badger just got the same Collins deal cut in half. $14M a year but for 3 years

 

Safeties resetting the market. Good for them. Still a lot of good ones out there. But they are pricier than everyone anticipated.

Ok, thought it was more than that. He was hurt often though just played through it. With his size longevity could be an issue. I know some Dallas fans liked him a lot some felt like he was heading downhill and didnt expect him back even if they had money to pay him.

Chris Mortensen confirmed that so it actually sounds legit. Otherwise I wouldn’t have believed it lol

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

His stats look good. He is young. My question is why would he come here on a one year deal. He should be coming around when a receiver starts to play well in the NFL. Is he a slot or a deep threat.

Sounds like $13 mil max. Not sure how much is incentives.

Wow. Only a year though so I am ok with that. Still confused why he would even consider a one year deal.

[RNGDShobby]

$13m?? GROSS.

imagine if they signed grant to a 3-4yr deal. i'm fine with this given if he performs well he comes back but i think this is build through the draft 101.

[w87r]

Funchess was held back by the inaccuracy of Cam Newton.

 

Good gamble. Little pricey, but whatever.

 

Either he plays good and we keep him or we let him go and get a comp pick out of him next year.

[BluHorzhu]

LOL this Funchess deal looks funny.  13 million is much more than "prove it" money yet still only a 1 year deal for a young player.  I'll have to reserve any judgment until further notice.  

 

I'm surprised he could command that type of money.

[NorthernBlue]

My guess is Funchess was offered less money but more term from another team. Colts didn't want to invest that many years, so they ramped up the dollars for a 1 year prove it deal. Hopefully he pulls an Ebron.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This is a very ballard like nice. This could be what Ebron was last year. If he proves himself he will be here long term. If Cain ends up being very good we aren’t stuck with him.

[Stoney]

Looks like the Colts are trying to use up their cap on short deals so we have our money freed up for last years rookie class. Quenton & Leonard will break the bank.
