Muir was solid as I recall. But yeah, we were deep at the time. I think we had a 4-3 then, did we not? But he was developing nicely. Young guy, journeyman but had skills.

Without that depth Muir would have made the team, we cut him and the Colts picked him up and plugged him day one.

I'm curious to see how much we signed him for.

Underwhelming move.

May help depth, but doubt he's going to be much bigger of a contributor to the DL rotation than Neal, Wynn, et all were last year.

I think sometimes people forget just how we got to the last super bowl trophy.

Wolf did it with free agents, but Ted does it mostly with drafted talent. It is a slower and more grinding way to go, and the impatient ones seem to criticize the most.

I hope Capers is given the players he needs to get better results on the field. You can't handicap a person and expect results.

I don't mind this signing at all, if the price is acceptable. He did play OK when he was a Packer, as already said, he was more of a victim of the good DL at these days. However, we have to wait if he can translate his play to a 3-4 DE, which he never played before. He has to earn a roster spot, if he does, I'm fine with the signing.

As I didn't find any contract numbers by now, the only thing that scares me at the moment is, if he signed a contract of more than a million bucks a year. If he did, he's compensatory pick eligible. That means, if Pat Lee didn't sign a million contract per year, which is what I assume, this signing would cost the Packers one of the compensatory picks for Wells and Flynn (at this time in FA). Both will likely to be at least 4ths and that would really .... be not SO good 😉 At least that's my personal understanding of compensatory pick rules.
