Kris Jenkins and a new Center next on the list.

No thanks. He simply can't stay healthy anymore.

No. I really don't want us taking any wr's in the first two rounds.

Not sure what to think about this signing. Has anyone really seen this guy play a lot? I assume probably not. He's familar with Haslett but so what? He fills a need but isn't he around 30? I just don't see the point in signing anyone around that age on a team that needs to rebuild and get younger.

Nice pickup. Guy who knows the system and is a ballhawk. He seems to have a knack for making plays and did so the last few years against the Skins.

Moore should just be cut as he is shy to tackle and rarely makes difference making plays (sacks, ints, ffs). With Doughty and Horton as backups we should be fine now at the safety position.

2nd most forced turnovers by a DB in the NFL the last 3 years, or something like that.

I like it. He's a playmaker, knows the system, and frees us up to make other moves now.

Moore was probably having the best training camp of any defensive player on the team before he inurjed his knee, and he just wasn't the same afterwards. I don't think he should be cut. Bring him back 100% and see what he's got. He's only 26.

I like the Otogwe signing. I wonder how much of that $26M is guaranteed.

Ross Tucker via Twitter: Love OJ Atogwe signing by Skins. He was in on 44 TO's over last 5 years. That's not luck. That's a trend.

Meh, we are celebrating the signing of a player released by the Rams? What's so special about him again?
