Sanders and Ward are good examples. Guys who were seen as okay players but were they good enough....
Talib is Pacman. Pacman is Talib.
Were those guys quality FA's? Did they help Denver win it all? Absolutely. That's all that needs said. I disagree on the Talib/Pacman comparison though. I'm not sure anyone would've touched Pacman had we not signed him. The Cowboys are the only other team with a rep like the Bengals for taking in guys like that, and the Cowboys had seen enough. Talib got a good contract. Pacman was offered a last chance type of deal.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
