Yes if you get better value for the money spent.
In 2011 the Bengals improved their defense from 24th to 9th mainly because they signed three new starters in free agency (Thomas Howard, Manny Lawson, Nate Clements). None of them were big first day signings.
Instead of blowing all their money on one big name player they signed three. They got better value for their money so they were "smart".
