So basically we gave nothing gauranteed to a guy who may or may not be better than our 5th/6th CB. He may or may not make the team depending on injury recovery, franchised CBs, unknown rookies, and how he plays the next week or so.

So what doesn't make sense about the signing? I can't understand signing a street FA to ever be bad unless you are cutting someone who may be valuable (and we cut nobody). It is no risk and small reward.
The guy is not a good special teamer, he was cut because he shied away from contact. I'm sorry I do not see him being better than our 7th or 8th best CB.

Dunta and Reeves are the two starters. Bennett and Molden should be the back ups. McCain and Quinn have had to much tape to be assured they clear waivers.

That is 6 guys, how many CBs are you carrying? Matterral Richardson, and David Pittman have had decent camps and then add less than a week of O'Neal.

In all my time of following football, I do not remember to many cases of a guy being added to the roster a week before final cutdowns and that guy making the team.
