Top signing for Stage 10:

Jerry Wunsch, G - Signed a 2 year, $2.43 million contract with New England. Wunsch started 15 games last season for the Vikings, after seeing little action in 2004 with Seattle. Wunsch becomes the second offensive lineman the Patriots have signed, center John Wade the other. Wunsch is the Patriots 10th signing, who are attempting to overhaul their roster to improve upon last season's 8 win season. The Patriots last season dropped their last 3 games to fall out of the playoff possibilities.

Adam Archuleta, S - Archuleta signed with Carolina for 2 years and $1.4 million. Archuleta, a first round draft pick in 2001, lost his starting position in 2003, only to regain it back and then be released. Archuleta is a solid player who will provide depth at the safety position. Archuleta was seeking a starting position somewhere, but drew little interest and signed with the Panthers.

Steve Smith, WR - Smith resigned with Carolina for 2 years, $1.22 million. Smith, who became a starter in 2003, has recorded 102 catches during the past two seasons. Smith should benefit in the Panther new look offensively, with the additions of Marc Bulger, and Marvin Harrison.

John Wade, C - Wade signed with the Patriots for 3 years, $3.42 million. Wade was a starter during the Bucs Super Bowl wins but last season backed up in Houston.
