I like the signing. Whenever I watched Freeman in Tampa the guy was allowed to throw down the field A LOT, which is the complete opposite of Ponder. We don't really need a game-manager, we need a guy that can stretch defenses out and take some pressure away from the box, and I think Freeman is capable of doing that.
He's 25 and already has one excellent season under his belt in the NFL so you know the potential is there. If it works out, we could get a good young QB for this team; if it doesn't work out, don't resign him. Low risk/high reward type of move.
