Tennessee finally started to fix the hits they've taken during free agency by signing Jake Scott, former G for the Colts. They really needed to replace Jacob Bell with someone young, and with all their positions that need help they were running out of draft picks. Good hire.
Seahawks hire RB Julius Jones. This gives them a pretty good group of RBs with Maurice Morris, T.J. Duckett, and Shaun Alexander if they decide to keep him at this point. All of these guys do good things in different situations and Seattle has had a lot of experience with using multiple RBs since Alexander's decline over the last two seasons.
Lions resigned T George Foster and RB Tatum Bell. Foster is another previously promising lineman who has basically imploded in Detroit, much to Kitna's detriment, but the Bell hiring is pretty decent. He's a good player who could do a lot for the running game if Coach PoundTheRock actually pounds the rock. Marinelli has to be the most delusional man in all of football. It's like he thinks he's still in Tampa.
Rams signed QB Trent Green as backup QB. Other than the fact that they're doing the same thing the Panthers did, sitting on an aging QB (Marc Bulger) without trying to get a replacement developing behind him... I really think Trent Green should just retire. He has his money and his memories, but if he keeps on going he might lose the second one. The guy is one bad hit away from real damage, and he has a family to think about. Trent Green, if you're out there.. hang it up.
Finally, the Bucs signed RB Warrick Dunn. I think this shows that Carnell Williams isn't coming back, at least not anytime soon. Dunn will clearly split time with Earnest Graham and Michael Pittman while the Bucs look for a long term solution.
