Today SUCKED smh...

Personally, I'm happy. We didn't do anything stupid...like overpaying average players like Drew Bennett, Jacob Bell, James Butler, etc. to come to our team.

I know we probably did the right thing, but it certainly makes me a sad, bored fan lol. Sucks but fans of perpetually losing teams live for this time of year, maybe we're finally turning into one of those teams who actually build strictly through the draft. At least our FO has the job security to keep from making dumb, desperate moves that will only hurt us in the future, I guess.

Wow i take a late meeting and miss free agency.
Buck up Rams fans still can get some guys for a good value to fill some holes.

So who is left you are interested in?

Captain Munnerlyn maybe? What about when Revis hits the market?

Tarelle Brown. Just a guess hell I don't even know if we are/were targeting any of the f/a cornerbacks or safeties. A little disappointed we didn't snag Schwartz overall. Fuk it! In Snead and Fish I still trust.

All I know is, as bad as it sucks to not see your team sign the players you want...at least we are't like the Chiefs who lost 5 key players today.

I'm putting my early bid in that they are the team that regresses the most next season.

Byrd bags giant deal from Saints
Posted by Mike Florio on March 11, 2014

Former Bills safety Jairus Byrd wanted $9 million per year. And he got it. Exactly.

According to multiple reports, the Saints have given Byrd a six-year deal with a total value of $54 million. Of the amount, $28 million is guaranteed.

Unknown (for now) is the amount that’s fully guaranteed at the time of signing, and the amount that is guaranteed for injury only.

The structure also will say much about the expected duration of the deal. High salaries and cap numbers in future years make it less likely that all six years of the deal will be completed.

Given the Saints’ current cap crunch, it’s likely that the contract has been loaded up with bigger dollars later in the deal.

Byrd has no connection to any member of the New Orleans coaching staff. However, it’s possible that defensive coordinator Rob Ryan knows what former Bills defensive coordinator Mike Pettine thinks of Byrd, via Jets coach (and Rob’s twin brother) Rex Ryan, who employed Pettine before he went to Buffalo.

Depth,yeah. Fill holes? I doubt it.
Big draft in May.

With the draft choices we have we can get maybe 4 starters. And there is still some decent players in the FA pool that would be effective depth for the team. It's always a season of attrition

Thanks Alan, while I embrace it I can't take credit. X at some point assigned it to me. I think I had one of Jenkins prior. However over the years X has known me to be quite the 'inked up stoner gym rat'.
