With the free agents, we were really able to cover our needs spots. That allows us not to compromise our pick in any way. We don't have to take a lesser player because he plays a position of need.
Admittedly, he was surrounded by a (great) cast. Well, now he's got a lesser cast and he went out and did the same things. I've noticed a real shift in opinion on him as we've moved through the year. And that shift is probably worth quite a lot of money.
