The bills have always used free agency to help them out. This is an off year, not just for the bills, but for many teams. This is the worst offseason for free agency with all the rules.
The problem with the bills is not how much they paid or how many they signed, it is WHO they signed. They signed and traded for players a lot, and they rarely worked out.
you can say:
But we can say: Bills: Dockery, walker, Beldsoe, Rob Johnson, flutie, T.O., Jackson, Spikes, Milloy, etc.
We always grabbed people in FA. A lot of ones that commanded some big $$$. The problem is a lot of them sucked or didn't live up to the high contract we paid them. Just because we aren't going big in Free Agency in the first 10 days in on of the worst Free agencies doesn't mean that this front office thinks they can only fix with the draft, won't sign more players, or whatever.
