What do people have against free agency? If the Bengals were willing to drop $9 million per on MLJ, what do we have against signing someone like Mike Wallace, Andre Johnson or Andre Holmes for 2-3 million? It'd open up our draft (we need replacements for Peko and Hall) and it would give us a proven producer at the WR position in case we draft some raw rookies.
Where is the downside?
You know I'm on your side of this, so I'll answer that for you.
Fear of losing compensatory picks.
Fear of paying for an overrated player.
Fear of him not fitting the system.
Fear of not having enough money afterwards to pay our own.
Seems to me it has something to do with fear.
