Or you get the desired result. As we did last year by adding Eric Stienbach (free agent) and Joe Thomas (1st round draft pick) to O-line. DA was one of the least sacked QBs in league.

Adding run stoppers in the middle that demand a double teams will free up Wimbley to rush the passer more and cause all kinds of havoc for the opposing QB.

Of course there is also the LeCharles Bentley example. The biggest impact free agent on the market when we signed him. Then he blew out his petella on the 1st day of training camp. That was 2 years ago and we still don't know if ever play again.

Regardless of outcome, I love the moves by Savage. He got proven players that can have an immediate impact on the team. Rather than drafting someone with potential that they may never reach. There are plenty of highly touted draft picks that never live up to the hype. Robert Gallery, Courtney Brown, Gerrard Warren, Ryan Leaf, etc.
