I disagree with this. Green and Reeves are the two FA's they spent money on. Green was a calculated risk. They knew if he could stay healthy he would help this team, but there was a good chance that he would have trouble staying healthy. On the four plays he's been healthy he has looked good. It's easy to say it was a bad decision now and they probably over paid, but they knew what they were getting into and gave it a shot.

Reeves has a big contract for his agent to mouth off about, but it's structured so that we can get out of it relatively pain free cap wise if he's not working.

Guys like Eugen Wilson, Demps, Bentley, etc have all been cheap and filled holes on this team....in some case they have been an upgrade.
