Re: UFAs Briggs and Samuel
don't waste big money on LBs when slightly lesser talent is available cheaply.
briggs would be nice, but not over a stud WR or DE and that's where i rather put the money, if possible.
either way, when you change staffs like we just have, the first year back probably isn't going to be a great run into the playoffs, so it might be better to wait a year, give the cap some room and see how well the guys we have are playing in december.
I mean, if a great deal comes up, that's one thing, but overspending when we're just not in a (historically) good position to make the playoffs, well, that'd just hurt us even more down the road, especially when we're talking about guys that don't really address an immediate need.
