Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see how a ton of Jamon Merediths help this team's future. I'm not against stop-gap salary casualties either, but we already have Thomas Jones

You are right that you won't build a Super Bowl winner on the backs of waiver wire pickups, but think about this:
Tony Richardson was waiver wire trash for this team, as were Brian Waters and Casey Wiegmann.
3 of the 11 guys on the best offense we ever had were guys that other teams released that we picked up. In Waters' and Richardson's case, they were shitcanned as rookies.
