I'd much prefer to STOP overpaying everyone else's free agents, retain our own, and place far more emphasis on college scouting and the draft. Look at the two teams in the Super Bowl and name me even ONE free agent that they have overpayed. Also look at how many of their guys are home grown. Just in the last few years, the Giants have drafted Matias Kiwanuka, Justin Tuck, Barry Cofield, and Osi Umenyiora to bolster an already strong D-line that had Michael Strahan and Fred Robbins. Unless we can find bargain free agents the way the Giants did with Antonio Pierce or the Patriots did with numerous guys such as Welker and Vrabel, I'd just as soon stay out of the high stakes bidding.
