Okay, first things first. Sneak peek at the rookie WR is ... fine. I think he should prove, very quickly, to be a fully competent X receiver, and will play outside for that whole job. He looks like 70+ in everything I value there, and 60 or so in endurance - so, box checked. Not a superstar, but an above-average asset at a very important position, where we honestly needed to land the punch. Great.

We have 56 players signed, $9m in cap space, and a problem of my own doing - LB Shedd is holding out. Dammit, this is on me. The deal he wants would cost us an extra $10m this year. Ugh. Need to thread a needle here, really want to keep him.

So - similar stuff applies here to what I said above in Baltimore... not much expected from the late free agency, we will kick some tires, and I reckon we'll land a keeper or two, but we're targeting the fringe of the roster, not the core.
