We didn't overpay CJ and replaced him with a team friendly deal by signing Hurst. The two FA signings for the OL are huge (I'll feel better when Cappa is signed, sealed, and delivered). Tonight, we have a chance at Collins. I'm enjoying this and excited.
Maybe it's because I have been doing auction drafts in a 14 team fantasy league for over a decade, but I feel the same way. Got to find the bargains and acquire players that actually help your roster and are dependable. Buying splash players normally only makes sense if you want to pay for a foundational player on the roster. Those type of "splash" contracts should only go to players already on the roster, unless the organization believes they are a legit "one player away", then overspend to get your guy in FA or go make the trade.
