Not necessarily you look at last year Jacob Tamme was signed in late march, I want to say on March 23rd or 24th, he had a good year for the Broncos. I think their other tight end was signed on the same day in Dreessen.

You look at Donnie Avery he was signed around that same time period and made around 600,000 and he had 60 catches for the Colts this past year.

Ravens got Corey Graham in late march and he made less than a million and he played well for the Ravens.

You will be surprised at who is available toward the end of free agency.

My take on signing free agents is don't go for the names you go for the value, and the longer you can wait the more value you can obtain. I am not saying wait until August to fill your roster. But I am saying have some patience let the market pay out and see who is available at your price, not theirs. A lot of those late value players will end up playing important roles.
