It's different when you're a contender.

And Buffalo did that with Vaughn Miller.

They did it with Joey Bosa.

And you try to get these veteran guys that still have something in the tank that were, you know, some of the best in football, and they're a little bit cheaper towards the end of their career.

Those guys are all still available, and there's still possibilities, I think, if you want to plug them in.

I think you can wait a little bit, and I think there's a lure, like Chicago partially has.

Vaughn Miller really takes into account, do I have a chance to win another Super Bowl?

Money's not really an object to me.

I think Joey Bosa's a little bit in the same vein.

Can you lure these guys in with the idea that they have an opportunity to win a ring in Chicago, and you can wait them out in free agency?

There's that path.

Obviously, there's a path of drafting them and keeping them and making sure they never hit the likes of free agency and you keep giving them deals.

The Trey Hendrickson one is obviously still out there, and it's out there, to my understanding, because nobody's met his price.

We've seen Trey out there in golf attire during off-season activities where everybody's practicing and he's holding press conferences.

He's a guy that holds pretty firm in where he believes his value is.

And I think right now, when we all assumed on Monday he was going to fly off the board pretty quickly in his first time in free agency at 31, it doesn't happen.

It's probably because he believes his value coming off that injury is still extremely high.

But I do think...

And free agency is the hardest way to do it.

The biggest contract that was given out on Monday was Jalen Phillips, when the Panthers kind of swooped in behind the Eagles' back and landed him to a four-year, $120 million deal.
