Signing free agents

I know this has been hinted at in many other threads but I want everyone's opinion. We all know that there are many free agents that will be available and several of them would, assumingly, be great fits on our team. Sometimes we get upset at the front office for failing to acquire a particular player, but what we shouldn't forget is that said player has to WANT to come to New Orleans. Obviously, money probably is the number one motivating factor, but the organization and the ability to win is perhaps a close second.

How does one be convinced to come here to play?? I definitely wouldn't want a player here that doesn't want to be here (and lets that fact manifest itself in the player's performance) so breaking the bank to lure players here is highly unwise IMO. Winning is the answer and we have to get back to it. As long as we're winning, they'll be lining up to come here. Everybody wants to be associated with a winner.

So fans, please don't get upset if your targeted player doesn't sign here. It's more complicated in reality than it is on Madden.


Nice try... they'll still blame Loomis.. but I 1000% agree with you. I also feel that building thru the draft should be the way to go (Meily). :9:
