only the ump-teen different quotes and articles that had Graves bascially saying "we wont be as active in free agency this year as last" and "we wont be active in the first few days of free agency"
and Darren Urban writing that fans can forget about Faneca, Suggs and Samuel, that the approach will be to get second tier guys to add depth and competition.
All of that would be great except that Graves and Co said all of the same things heading into FA two years ago right up until we signed Edge.
Have you ever pondered whether RG just knew that he wouldn't be able to get anything done concerning Fitz in a timely fashion? Maybe he anticipated having no $ to spend. If he did, it would make all the sense in the world to forwarn the fans that there would be no FA action.
Also please remember that we had ZERO money. You cannot sign mid level or even low level guys without any $$. Moore was $1mill per year and was exactly what the organization claimed to want to compliment Edge. Are you really trying to tell me that they wanted to pass up the chance to lock down a guy who met their needs perfectly only put their faith and hopes into a crapshoot that is the draft????]
Backup RB and CB depth were needs, plain and simple, and good teams address needs in FA so that they may select the BPA in April.
