including Floyd and Wagner.....
It seems there has been a shift in free agency the last few years, where the big names with some mileage linger much longer as teams now try to fill spots through the draft with cheap labor, then go bargain shopping after the draft to fill needs they missed in the draft for veteran free agents.

older guys are slower, more prone to injuries, and production declines. So, when they do get an older guy it has to be the right
fit, maybe that one missing piece, not a "hey that guy is going to the Hall of Fame, let's grab him" . . .

Teams playing money ball, as you point out.

Trading experience for youth, speed, strength
