Look I am not a big fan of the front office either but not signing free agents and valuing draft picks isn't the problem. The problems is not resigning guys that were good players and not replacing them. Also keeping guys that are over their prime instead of younger better players is a problem.

You don't fail to win a playoff game for 26+ years in the NFL while most franchises have won atleast 5 over that span...without poor management.

The drafting is bad. The free agent signings are rare and when they do sign one they sign them to a 1 year deal and they go for the cheapest option whether they fit the system or not.

Then, they let free agents go like Whitworth after telling everyone at the combine that he was resigning here. Just total train wreck. And they replace them with draft picks that are busts.

IF you are going to let guys go in free agency that are really good, you need to replace them with good players or you get worse.
