I am only subscribing to that theory for the kicker position. We have had too many years of trying to find a kicker and only the injury prone Hall was our answer. I have no problem having patience in any other area, but not kicker. Kickers don't get good until they have a lot of seasons under their belt (in most cases). It's not like finding a stud wr for 500k a season vs a stud free agent wr for 7 or 8 mil a year. The highest paid kicker is only around 2 mil a season, so we could easily pick up a Brown (for instance) for 1.5-1.8 mil a season, and we would have NO worries. Why not sure up that area for only 1 mil a season?

Also, you are assuming he is perfectly capable. I say it's a 30% chance he can be the capable guy we are looking for. That's a small percentage.
