When NFL free agency opens every year in early to mid-March many forget that it's actually the official start of a new league year. That means the weeks between the Super Bowl and that March deadline essentially become a financial sprint for teams to get their salary cap situation in as stable a place as possible. In many ways, free agency is seen as a solid compliment to a good draft. A manner in which a team can jump to contention in a hurry. In others, it's a period of bad investments and poor professional scouting, of which makes up for many cap casualty cuts each year.
