We've lost quite a few impact free agents over the past 3-4 years...and failed to replace most through the draft with similar quality. Now, we're forced to use free agency atleast at some level.
Now I don't think anyone wants us to go out on Day 1 and throw massive contracts at guys. I'm talking Tier 2 and 3 free agents.
Agreed, I don't want to see them just throwing money away, simply for the sake of it. However, if they had a plan to say fill the starting Tackle, LB, or even CB situation with high quality signings, in an effort to free up the draft? I would be all for it. (I say CB because it might just come to that if say, Dennard doesn't want to sign for what they want to offer)
I could even reason them spending medium money on some proven depth at WR, OG, TE, or DL, if they're not completely comfortable with what's coming back on the roster.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
