  1. Reading some stuff from beat writters, seems like he similar to Vonn Bell, maybe slightly worse in coverage but plays downhill and great in run D.

  2. This dude is a BIG HITTER. Expect some fucking hit sticks next season. LFG I’m hype

  3. PFF estimated he’d get $5m/year, so this feels like a good deal.

    Also for recordkeeping purposes, this may cancel out the 7th round comp pick we would’ve gotten from Perine. Still on track for a 5th (Bell) and a 6th (Hurst).

  4. Feels like an overpay… but it could also be a steal. Or could be a perfectly fair price. What to I know. I thought we’d get him in for less though.

  5. Not sure why people are excited about Scott. Dude is absolutely terrible in coverage.

  6. Shefted is a douchebag He knows less than I do. Watching him on tv.. he gets up and takes a call like it’s some ongoing sports news. Staged asshole

  7. 10M less than what Vonn got. Now he’s not as good as Vonn but he is younger and in a similar mold. This offseason is fire! It feels like me playing Front Office Football.

  8. We are most likely weaker at the Safety position, but we saved $20M a year on the group! Look at it this way.

  9. It’s like year 3 of this but witnessing the Bengos make moves in free agency is still fucking wild to me

  10. Rams fans seem upset about losing him despite knowing their cap reasons make it necessary. Makes me a little happier/more confident about it being a solid pick up

  11. Easily the best realistic signing they could have made. Bates was going to be gone for a long time now but it would have been an incredible free agency if they had been able to pair Scott with Bell.

    Here’s hoping Dax is picking everything up mentally and his on-field mistakes from this past season are normal rookie stuff. Physically he is there.
