They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!
I can't speak to those other teams, but the Patriots' slide had nothing to do with free agency spending.

They did spend a lot of money on JAGs.

Judon, Henry, and Bourne were hits and aren't JAGS


Now Jonnu Smith on the other hand..

Mostly sucked too

3 out of 5 isn't bad , and as was previously stated the spending wasn't the reason why they backslid

Cause Matt Patricia is an rear end in a top hat and wouldn't play him after Bourne said he didn't know what he was doing trying to run the Shanahan offense in training camp

I'm aware but you can't call a guy a hit for imaginary production.

The point is the Patriots offense sucked because of the person in charge not because of lovely free agent acquisitions that blew up.

I would attribute at least a two game swing to just Patricia alone.

lovely free agent signings impact your ability to allocate those cap dollars more wisely. You don't think a better spending of the $30m in cap given to Agholor, Smith, Bourne would have had an impact in the win column? What is the point of free agency if not to try to win more games?

Bourne was good the year before though, the only change was dumb and dumber putting him in the dog house

I would be happy to sign Jimmy G to start for 2 months in front of my rookie #2 overall QB.

1m more per year then Quenton Nelson, who really isn't living up to his deal and I question if Lindstrom is any better regardless.

I'm personally laughing at the prospect of McDaniels taking a playoff team* / borderline playoff team and turning it into dreck as he continues to be one of the biggest failsons in the league

It begins.

A Chicago beat writer named Edwards alongside Okereke and McGlinchey as early Bears targets to watch, so I wonder if the other dominoes fall soon there

if you think about it the nflpa was trying to sabotage the little underdog bengals just before free agency. They first tried to do it by releasing the franchise grades but no one cared too much so they had to pull out the big guns. Well we're a family and it's going to take more than that. you're going to have to throw us off the entire State Building!

4 years / $52m makes infinite more sense for a guard then 5 / $105.
