In the NFL, free agency can be a dangerous game to play. Not every new signing can be Reggie White or Drew Brees. Most of the time, free agency is a fool’s gold situation, where a player gets signed by a new team to a massive contract that they very quickly begin to regret. That’s probably why the Steelers have strayed away from it for so long, only recently signing players from outside the organization to large deals. Unfortunately, the Steelers have also been on the other end of this situation, where they let a player walk that ends up being just as, or more, successful with their new team.
