Actually yeah - low profile, high potential. You want underappreciated and underrated players in free agency. To me, that means that the perception of the player is lower than what his talent level and/or potential is.

And of course I want talented players, just not the ones that you have to overpay for. High-profile = overpaid

Well you obviously don't want to do what we did in 2000 but there would be no problem adding some high profile if he fit a need well. We'll really need good talent evaluation to find this crop of diamonds in the rough that you describe; hopefully can.
