Buchsbaum comments on recent free-agent signings

PFW: Packers re-sign Bernardo Harris

Buchsbaum: He had his best year. He’s a respectable linebacker. I didn’t think he’d be good enough last year, until he played better.

PFW: Bengals sign Richie Cunningham

Buchsbaum: Journeyman kicker with average leg strength. It’s just that their young kicker, Neil Rackers, was so bad that they had to get some competition in there for him.

PFW: Dolphins add WR James McKnight

Buchsbaum: It gives them a down-the-field, big-play threat. The question is can he put strong years back-to-back. He never has in the past.

PFW: Carolina signs OG Kevin Donnalley

Buchsbaum: He fits in. He played for that OL coach (Paul Boudreau) in Miami last year. He’s a big, strong tough guy who provides toughness and leadership to that line, and he’ll start.

PFW: Patriots sign OL Joe Panos

Buchsbaum: He was really hampered by injuries the past couple of years. He’s just a tough, blue-collar worker, and he’s further evidence of what Bill Belichick’s trying to do. He’s trying to bring in some people who have good work ethics, because for four or five years they just brought people in based on athletic ability. They really didn’t seem concerned with character or football toughness.
