Quote:Not every player is the same. Revis has been known to just want the best contract throughout his career. Other players will take less to stay withe their team. Yeah maybe if you severely overpay for a guy like Cobb like make him the highest paid receiver he would've accepted but that's just wasting money on a guy that isn't the top player. It might be nice now but if you continuously do that it will come back to bite you in a couple years.

 

I agree and can see both sides. One side says we aren't "close enough" to need 1 or 2 guys to put us over the top, which in turn makes us go after middle of the pack free agents, which a large majority don't work out or are huge busts.

 

Having said that, obviously we are the 2nd one here because we aren't close enough, but at the same time they may need to do something drastic to keep fan interest.
