Right, so why give a multi-year (longer than two) deal to anyone? What good does it do to say: "you're a nice player in a crappy class, come be a staple of our future."

Nothing is inherently wrong with either of these signings, as players who can help us win, but something doesn't quite smell right. Improvement is going to be slow, of course, but this is hardly even moving in the right direction.
