southsider2k5 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 03:35 PM) I presume they will wait until Houston signs (but it will happen in the next day or so). Not like you have to be under the cap yet, just need to be under the cap by a certain date (IIRC). I think as long as you don't spend over the salary cap number by the end of the season is what matters? No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 All of the top DE available are less than amazing pass rushers. Houston is only 26 and could play multiple positions if needed. Has longer track record than the other guys, too. Remember too that sacks are a small part of the pass rush. You'd trade three or four collapsed pockets / thrown away passes for a sack.

witesoxfan Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The safety market exploded, except one guy didn't even get a whisper. Really hopeful that Byrd ends up back in Buffalo after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I still think Jairus Byrd is the only free agent worth signing. I'm curious to see where he goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 04:18 PM) I still think Jairus Byrd is the only free agent worth signing. I'm curious to see where he goes. After the flurry of moves today, my realistic side says a minimum 50% chance that he ends up back in Buffalo, and my homer side says it's closer to 85%. The Rams don't have any money, the Jets need CBs and offensive pieces, and the Redskins have needs all over. The Raiders could step up and make a big offer, but Byrd doesn't seem like their sort of move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Mundy's +0.2 rating on PFF would have made him our best defensive player last year Edited March 11, 2014 by Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The Bears are flat out making moves that make sense for a 3-4 defense. Shane McMuffin could be that pass rushing LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 It's amazing, last year vet defensive players couldn't smell a contract. All of them that signed 1 year deals and didn't get injured definitely are getting paid this year. Poor DJ Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears should be in better position financially. The question is does Allen care about getting paid again or winning right now. His first FA contract was the biggest all-time for a defensive player, so he has gotten the big payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, sorry site about Byrd. I'm sure they figured out a way to circumvent the cap for this year while risking their future leverage. With their situation, they have to go all-in this year.
