Re: Free Agency/Franchise Tag thread 2011
I think too many people are still traumatized by big time gaffes committed by this team in free agency such as overpaying questionable talent (Archuleta), giving up picks for washed up/semi-washed up players (Jason Taylor/McNabb), really dumb trades (TJ Duckett), and giving a ton of money to headcases (Haynesworth).
We definitely should build through the draft, but that doesn't exclude getting good free agents. I think Bruce Allen has shown us that he's not going to overpay someone who isn't worth it (see LJ, Parker, etc., etc.). And due to a number of circumstances, we are going to see a number of young talented players that will be available in free agency.
