Thompson has been a washout in his FA signings. He needs to up the talent on this team thru every available means. If he fails to do that, we are staring mediocrity in the face
I suspect Rison was on a very short leash, and at the first hint of trouble he would have been released. He would not have been given the chance to be a disruption.

TT has had successes in FA, too. Gado was a good signing. I thinkDonald Lee was a good signing. The only one that has seemingly flopped is Adrian Klemm, who doesn't seem to be more than a backup tackle. I'm not sure what people expected from Freeman, Little and O'Dwyer. In reallity these were simply guys who were offered "tryouts" with GB. Each was signed to basically a veterans minimum contract. Maybe the biggest fault is TT should have brought in even more guards than he did.
