Waaay too much risk for my blood.  That's why I prefer to tread cautiously in free agency.

I agree, my biggest fear was we would repeat history with big risky splash signings. Sure this gets lauded by all the talking heads whether on TV or blogging that have nothing to lose. Let's face it if those guys had their job on the line they may behave differently. We will be drafting a QB that will not hit his stride for 2 to 3 years at which time these high priced guys will be on their way out or not worth the money being paid leaving us with tons of dead money. I guess I am tired of winning the free agent super bowl and not winning games that count. So the current regime gets kudos from me for not taking the easy way out.
