I am relieved that Garrett stayed with the Browns. While the rumors started with this team being the front runner for him, at the combine it shifted to the Eagles. And I take combine rumors more seriously.
The market is exploding and won't calm a little for a week or two It will be interesting. I was looking at as though Chinn and Moehrig would bring the same contract amount.Hard call as to pure narrative. The narrative against him with some is he's classic overpay in FA -- pay a good edge like he's great, And then you got that is he a product of that Eagles D line, etc.
I've warmed up to him because I started watching him like a draft prospect and love his get off and bend. So I can dig it.
Also now that the DE market has exploded, if they pay him 20 million or so that is paying "good" edges like they are good.

DL improvement will help the DB's. We still need improvements at S even if we have Chinn back base on last year. Can Hampton and Owens prove themselves? Tough call.
For certain. If looking for a lower tier younger FS via free agency, they could look at Cisco, I liked him at Syracuse and some in the draftthink they can use another safety in addition to Chinn. I've been a fan of Chinn since going back to that draft. But i don't like him in split safety coverage, playing cover 2 which he did more than I expected last season. I'd want a read FS to play along side Martin in those cases.
