It costs big coin to sign guys to their second contract but that is generally less expensive than getting into the bidding war of free agency.The benefit of signing younger free agents in the 24-26 age range is that you can judge their potential future performance by their actual NFL film rather than projecting a college player. I'm not against free agent signings by any means but it's ultimately a solution for poor drafting.Amari Rodgers was no doubt a massive bust. It may have been Gute's worst pick.Pro bowl caliber players in the middle of their career are rarely a cap casualty for anyone. Had Gute taken Humphrey, he would've been resigned. Gute does a very good job of determining who to resign and who to let go. Perhaps resigning Humphrey could've caused other players to be let go, but it wouldn't have been anyone that valuable.</blockquote>
