Kahn needs to take lesson from Steinbrenner

#16

Quote:well... it's good to 'vent' sometimes, I guess. The truth though is that putting a lot of faith in free agents is, at best, a gamble, and at worst, an outright waste of money. In our situation, the best choice is for us to 'stay the path' and build via the draft and only rely on f/a as a short term stop gap.

Our teams issues won't get fixed by this draft and f/a acquisition alone, but we're 'hopeful' that we're moving in the right direction. Sorry that it's not a quick turnaround, but that's the depth of woe this team is trying to recover from.
I'm not sure guys like Torrey Smith, DeMariyus Thomas, Jason Pierre Paul, given their ages, talent, and production, would represent "short term stop gap" players, (assuming for argument's sake these guys can hit the market) but I agree the team should not be overly dependent upon free agency.

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
