Thanks to the millions of dollars that Redskins owner Daniel Snyder and Browns owner Randy Lerner spent at this time last year, NFL teams have been provided an easy-to-use handbook on how the free agent process works.

Or, more aptly, how it doesn't.

Neither Edgerrin James, Terrell Owens, Steve Hutchinson, Charles Woodson or LaVar Arrington -- just some of the headliners from last year's free-agent class -- helped their new teams to a single playoff win this past season.

Said it once and I'll say it again. Spending big cash doesn't mean a winning team. Drafting well does.

Fair enough, but stupid spending on mediocre players (insert Kelsay's name here or Price or Royal or S. Williams or Reyes or T. Anderson) does not win playoff games either.
