We can say Kearse was a good signing now but what about next year if he gets hurt and misses most of the season which has been part of his history?

What if Kearse gets hurt next year? Who the fuck cares? They signed him to help them get to the Super Bowl, and they made it.
Another player JSP could've named is James Farrior (came in 2nd for NFL Defensive Player of the Year). Wow, you mean the Steelers actually signed an UFA? Oh, I thought they drafted all of their players. Jeff Hartings, their Pro Bowl center? Another UFA.
