Actually players that change teams flop MUCH more often than players that re-sign. It may take me a while to find the nubers, but I think most people here who follow the NFL would agree. It is mostly due to the fact that the players teams choose to keep are usually better than the ones thye let walk, but overall the bust rate is much higher for players switching teams.
This year we have 6 starters that are going into free agency. If you could have it any way you wanted would you rather keep all of them or let them all walk and replace them with players coming from other teams?
