Quote:Interesting. I admit I hadn't read that part.

That being said I believe the next paragraph implies that there will be times and situations where picking up a premium FA may be in the cards:

“As we move forward, we’ll pick and choose spots where it’s good for us to invest in free agents while still always focusing on building through the draft.

I read it as you did. I think when Caldwell said "Our plan is to find..." What he actually meant was "Our plan was to find...", hence ending the quote with "that was the plan."


That's my best guess anyway.


I think it will be like the Falcons, whose roster is overwhelmingly made up of draft picks, but they went out and got Tony Gonzalez and John Abraham during Caldwell's time there.
