One thing that has been a consistent in the four years of Steve Keim as general manager is Keim finding a player off the streets or someone another team doesn’t want for cheap.
In turn, that player usually makes an impact in a couple of games during the season: Dwight Freeney had a killer stretch of games, John Abraham was a Pro Bowler, Eric Winston had a nice season.
The latest in the “Keim Time” signings or trades is Marcus Cooper, the former Chiefs starting cornerback who was relegated to bench duties then was going to be moved to safety.
