I just threw up a little bit in my own mouth. The only consolation I have is that this year is the deepest for D-line talent that I can ever remember seeing. Hopefully a guy like a Tim Crowder, Adam Carriker, Anthony Spencer will be around at 31. Dammit. We are so dumb. We spend a 2nd round draft pick to move up to get Rocky last year, we already have Marcus, and we just gave Fletcher-Baker $25M. WTF?? Now apparently $20M guaranteed to Briggs? Did we really need to spend nearly $50M on linebackers in one month??

The only thing I can think of is that Marcus' hip surgery is more serious than anyone let on, and/or Rocky is not what they hoped...
