[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 138091, member: 431"] TT traveled under the radar thru the entire FA period last year and by the time it was over had actually been as active but more prudent than any team out there. There is a ton of good players still there and we have something like the second highest amount of money yet to spend in the league. When you negotiate ALWAYS do it from a position of STRENGTH vs. weakness. When FA started EVERY TEAM had money which gave the players the position of strength. There's guys out there not worth half what they just signed for. AS the money gets spent we regain a stronger position. There's still some very good players out there but less money to spend by our competition. We're fine. I posted on another thread that it looks like there are several GM's out there sweating it some and feeling the heat tho win. The reality of it is a very small percentage of these guys are going to have that big of an impact. A good FA helps a team get better. Some of these guys are getting paid to a degree they better carry the team on their back. It has failure written all over it. This is how bad it has gotten. KGB's contract previously looked like the Packers were getting seriously shafted. Now it's a bargain. That guy from Tampa, for example, had like 5 sacks and just got a *** of cash. We thought we could never get rid of him with that salary and now it would take one phone call. That TT does not get caught up in this craziness is fine by me. [/QUOTE]
