Not going to argue CP's lack of drafting talent.
However, I seem to remember Hermie saying they would not be active in free agency right away. Does no one remember that too? I interpreted that statement that they would build with the draft, (or vainly attempt to) and then sign players after the June cuts to fill some other holes.
I may have interpreted that wrong but, it would be a logical choice. Not going to give them credit for that philosophy though. It is more of a "Wow, we been throwing money at other teams re-treads for years and it never worked. Let's try something different"
