Lies, damned lies, and statistics:

FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2016 Free Agency Cost-Benefit Analysis

I really like FO work for the most part.

This article covers "major" free agent signings. We don't appear on the good or bad list.

NYG appear in exactly the right place at the worst end of the bad deal list.

Their two "bad" signings are going to have to play all world to live up to the contract.

lol at the commenter Chip Warren's note.

"The site gave the Giants, who spent big on some of the biggest names in free agency including defensive end Olivier Vernon, nose tackle Damon Harrison, cornerback Janoris Jenkins and re-signing defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul among others, didn’t get great value from free agency to date."

Hey buddy I give you an F- for your horrendous writing skills.You would do well to get someone to proofread your stories.

As to the premise of the article, it seems like the writer wanted to make the case that overpaying was ok because you got players pff ranked high before FA(1, 8, 28). But having a high ranking doesn't mean that over paying for those players is going to give you a high grade when it comes to ranking the value added to your team. In fact the FO article made the case pretty convincingly that the Giants did not make money wise decisions with the contracts they gave their FA signings.
