Perhaps Cowboys fans can take comfort in the Steelers – few big free agent aquisions over the years, just solid players and a good eye in the draft have put my team on the top of the NFL right now. There’s a reason we let Burress and Randle-El go – we’re not paying that much for a number 2 reciever.

He only caught 35 balls last season. Indeed, that signing strikes me as a “Larry Brown”: i.e., a wealthy owner is impressed with a Super Bowl performance and shells out waaay too much cash.

Dallas was sufficiently smart (although neither fast nor flashy) last season with the FA market, that I am not in panic mode as yet.
