Free agency is exciting for fans because proven players get a chance to switch teams. The problem is that they are all looking for more money than what they made previously. That could lead to some bad value deals with certain teams paying too much for a player.
Chris Ballard has made sure that the Colts are not one of those teams. He has shown the patience to not blindly throw money at a player and have a bad contract. Even though he has a lot of money to spend, he has done so diligently, making sure he gets a good value.
