[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 545618, member: 2846"] Outside FAs carry greater risk than internal signings. You have a guy since a rookie you are in a much better position to judge his heart and attitude. Nobody knows for sure how that first lucrative big contract is going to affect a guy. A FA from another team is a much riskier unknown. I recall many on this forum questioning the resigning of Jones, an average guy. The very next season he was a league leader in TD receptions. Players can still improve and take a step after their rookie contracts expire. It has become very fashionable for some folks to say that TT is poor at drafting defensive players. I don't agree with this. If you know football, judge talent, evaluate heart/intelligence/etc it doesn't matter so much which side of the ball they are on. True, he has had more success on offense so far, but that is only a coincidence and should even out over time. [/QUOTE]
