--The thing that scares me is look at the Released column then the signed/re-signed column. Well here's my break down...

Good Moves

--Signing of Dyson, that is a good step towards filling in Boston hole and helping rookie WR's on team.

--Signing of Godfrey and Foley, both great LB for a good price, they will both start and help

--Signing of G Mike Goff, Tomlinson + a good line = Bad day for defense

--Re-signing RB Leon Johnson, awesome kick return man good back up

--Re-signing of LS David Binn, don't here much about him but he is one of the best Long snappers in all the NFL.

--Releasing TE S.Alexander, about time we got rid of the dead weight on this team he was getting 6 Million a year to go on IR.

--Trading for OT Roman Oben, its about time we cheated some one out of a trade. There was talk Oben could have been released after June 1st.

--Re-signing WR Eric Parker he added a lot of muscle this off-season to cut down on injuries. He is a good WR fearless and good speed.

Bad Moves

--Trading of David Boston, if they gave him permission sooner they could have got a better deal, but they were rushed by having to pay him his bonus by a certain date.

--Re-signing of S Jerry Wilson, bad safety, old and no help to team

--Release of Raylee Johnson, he was good even if he was injured last year should have stayed around to help rookies/ Dingle. Keeping him could have saved us a draft pick on a DE.
