There was an NFL top 10 movie about top 10 free agents of all time. Reggie White was available and the Packers got him and won the SB.
He was #_2 on the list. He was also the top D FA that season. Reggie was an incredible force and he was the missing piece of that great Packers championship season. The top guy was Drew Brees who also won a SB for his new team. So yes, sometimes nabbing the best FA does work out for the nabbing team. There is of course many bad signings as well. I am all in favor of getting Suh. We should've drafted him to begin with but he's available for nothing but cash. We don't have to trade players. Because he was released we won't lose a comp pick. He's a free free agent in that sense. We would have one of the best DLs of all time with him added to AD and Brock. We have 3 All Pro CBs. We could have a shut down D.
