Nice. And Matthews probably thinks he has a great lead out now with Bos AND Renshaw.  |

Not to mention Breschel or Leezer 
Nice to see Renshaw with Rabo. My second favorite team disbanding means I want to see some of their riders in my favorite team

Do you want more PCMesque transfers? Koldo Fernández is about to sign with...Garmin.

How many sprinters do they want?
Farrar and Haussler still there I think, no real sprinter leaving them (except of Hushovd, who isn`t really) and with Brown and Fernandez two new sprinters.

You forget Rasmussen, although he might be good for TTTs.

If it wasn't for Hesjedal, I'd hate Garmin. They used to be a good American team, now they're just a European team, with an American sponsor and a few North American riders.
They'll probably get rid of most of their North American talent in the next few years like Stetina, Talansky and Summerhill to make room for "better" European riders, that Cervelo approve of, but wouldn't have even been considered before the joining of Garmin and Cervelo.
Also the Rasmussen signing, would also benefit the Garmin Track Cycling Team.

It`s not sure yet I think. But his Rabobank contract expires and I read somewhere that he is linked to Garmin although I cannot find a source yet. Will try to find it again. |

JV tweeted a few days ago that "regarding transfers: our takes are better than our gives. But only time will prove that to be true."
I am still trying to guess who he signed that is currently unnamed. Someone who will be better than Hushovd? Someone young since "only time will prove that to be true". |

Skil-Shimano has a commitment from John Degenkolb (HTC High Road) announced. |

The "only time" bit might just mean that theyve signed a good rider, which just hasnt been announced yet, rather than it specifically being a young rider who has potential.

I assume he's counting Dekker as a signing

Think you're missing Tyler Farrar in your list of American Talent on Garmin-Cervelo. Also Christian Vandevelde and David Zabriskie. While the last two aren't young they are still very capable riders.

By talents, I mean younger riders who still haven't broken through, but could soon. Riders like Steven Cozza, Alex Howes and a few other guys
In no way did I mean older riders (like Dave Z, and Vande Velde) who have been in the sport, and successful for a couple seasons already. And to my defence I said "most".
And to Garmin's defence they do have a Development team, but where has that team been? I've never seen them, and it really isn't the same anyway.
