[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 711278, member: 12283"] I'm not buying the "there are ways" argument. The only way one team outside the top 10 in cap space manages to lock down 25% of the top free agents available is if they blow everybody else out of the water with their offers and structure the contracts with prorated bonuses such that they end up in cap hell in years following. I don't know what the Elway comment is about. He never spent the type of money you're suggesting. He certainly used free agency, but a number of his impact moves were value signings because of things like age (Ware, Mathis) or checkered histories (Talib). His big splurge in 2014 on Talib, Ware, Ward, and Sanders came out to about 30M/season total. [/QUOTE]
