Winning at NFL free agency isn't always a good thing.
As the Washington Redskins displayed for years with gambles such as Albert Haynesworth and Antwaan Randle El, transactions making "winners" lists after they occur don't always pan out in the team's favor. Many times, a signing can send a franchise in the opposite direction.
NFL fans saw this in a few instances just one year ago. When the Arizona Cardinals threw down cash on Sam Bradford, it hurt the team's ability to win and prevented further development of Josh Rosen. Washington landed Paul Richardson and Green Bay paid up for Jimmy Graham, yet neither made an impact in their debut seasons.
