Yes. It's your attempt to divide all of free agency into two groups, based on four silly little rules that have no consistent application.

No. Wait, Yes... I mean no. I don't see your point. What the hell is the difference between need and need by position? Maybe your point is that contending teams have deep enough rosters that they don't have a dire need for an influx of young talent and are more likely to take established talent to get them over the hump with the rest of the contenders. I would agree with that because it stands to reason that contending teams have deeper rosters than those that do not contend (or pretend, as you say). A team like the Pats* is more likely to get a Junior Seau than the Bills because he isn't the difference for us, whereas he certainly could be the missing bit-piece for them.

My point is that Wilson is driven by profit first..
Flbillsfan#1 Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Sorry if it's too deep for you.. Yeah, Hip Boots only go so high.
Flbillsfan#1 Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 NO! My point is that Wilson is driven by profit first.. Unlike the other owners that don't care about making a profit.
PushthePile Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Yeah, Hip Boots only go so high. Awesome response.
Captain Caveman Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 NO! My point is that Wilson is driven by profit first.. I'd rather have him making a profit if it means his family will be able to pay the luxury tax and hold on to the team.
