I gave it a B. Murray is the guy I wanted but think we could have done better at Tackle. Jones just added another guy at a position of depth. Thielen was a RFA..it was just about the money to do that...and frankly we paid a lot...we paid Brandon Marshall type money.

I went with A-, simply because they let Cole and Ellison get away. They signed 2 OTs and the top RB in FA most likely, and didn't fuck up and waste money on Adrian, while also keeping Thielen around for another 3 years. Bringing Newman back is a good move too. Most importantly, these deals are all low risk with very little cap space tied up long term. So it doesn't get much better than that.

A strong B, with what was available to them I think they did as well as they could. I would have preferred Whitworth as a LT but maybe Reiff can hold his own there and Remmers should be able to match or improve what they had at RT recently. It stabilizes an OL that was in shambles. I'm glad they moved on from Kalil and AP and locked up AT.
Jones and Murray are some value signings that add talent/depth at important spots. I could almost talk myself into and A.
