So i don't think you can hold that up as a model of fiscal restraint. But I do agree that this year we have, finally, shown some discipline and forsight, and appear to have learned from our past boondoggles. Moreover, that really hasn't been the focus in the media. If you read what the pundits write, they seem to all argue, at least implicitly, that we didn't upgrade enough; but if we had "upgraded," they'd slam us for that too: "there goes old Danny Boy again." So anyway, yeah, they've been alot smarter this year and hopefully it will pay off on the field.

OK, so we gave Portis $50mil and gave Denver a top CB and a 2nd round pick. Lets say that we didnt do any of that. Would you feel comfortable with Bailey holding out a year just to go where he wants with nothing in return? Would still feel comfortable letting T. Candidate running the ball for us?
