Logic Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Shelling out big bucks in free agency is the price you pay for drafting poorly and/or failing to retain your own drafted talent. It very, VERY rarely happens that we look back at the biggest offseason spenders each year and decide that it was money well spent. "Winning the offseason" ain't worth much. Besides, as we have seen again and again, collecting talent and building a team are not the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Probably because they never bothered to get a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) I feel like Snyder’s football team deserves an honorable mention here somewhere (my apologies if I missed such upthread), when it comes to impressively loose purse strings a la Yankees--but in all the wrong places, so no hardware to show for it...

eSJayDee Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 That's like $140m/yr! Over that span, that's around 75% of their total cap. Granted, rookies & young players don't count much cap-wise, but to me that indicates that they retain virtually none of their players after their 1st contract. That's indicative of a) not doing a good job of scouting/acquiring players and b) a recipe for continued suckitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
