[QUOTE="Southpaw, post: 430340, member: 5186"] I disagree Free Agency is still something I feel our organization needs to take more of a part in a little more than it does. I'm not saying we need to empty our proverbial wallets and go all Philadelphia Eagles in Free Agency or paying out the *** for one guy, but we [I]are [/I]in a "Win Now" state as a team. A piece here a piece there and we're a complete team. Finding a solid player that can come into our system and immediately have an impact and not break the bank, rather than drafting a position player in the 4th or 5th round or signing an UDFA that we have to develop would be more ideal. We can still maintain our philosophy of staying young and building through the draft. I hate to go back to New England, but this is what they've been doing for years. They find bargain position players, and get them a steal prices, plug them in and they are almost always effective. Did anybody know who the hell Andre Carter was before he became Patriot this year? They got that guy for almost nothing, put him into their defense and he racked up something like 1o sacks and had a career game against the Jets. And they never get bit in the *** financially if the players don't happen to do anything (Haynesworth).They draft well and they are constantly wheeling and dealing for picks that by the 2025 draft, they will probably have 20 first round picks. Staying young in the draft is a great philosophy to have as an organization, but there comes a point where your team is on the brink, and dabbling in Free Agency is a quick way to put your team over. You just have to be smart, have an eye for talent and be a good negotiator. [/QUOTE]
