10 minuts ago the FA started, and who the fuck did see this signing comming? I for sure didn't I guess this will leave Cook out of the question as a FA signing. Perhaps Marshall can learn him how to behaive. Ha Emery.. you never know with this guy. As much as I hate Jerry Angelo I love Emery.

Unlike JA Emery isn't putting all his eggs in one basket

BIH, I think Cook would've been better but probably cost twice as much. Bennett is 10 times better than we had so to me it's a good signing.

As long as Davis goes bye bye I'm cool w/it. I would think Phil did some homework as far as how flaky this guy really is as he did it on Bmarsh.

I'm also thinking Cook would have been better, but if Bennett stays focused he is also really good. I like the signing. Just hope they can keep the guys head screwed on right.

Speaking of being able to keep your head screwed on, I hope they get some protection for Cutler also.

They said TE wasn't their highest priority. They just needed someone who could catch, if just a little.

Emery signs a bum last year and more over rated crap this year at te. Other then marshal totally unimpressed with emery so far as a gm. Now go get us that st gunner buddy!

I also thought Ol would be first. and I think they probably are engaged in OL talks right now. Either there is indecision or a bidding war may be happening in which case I think we move over to the next guy.
