I’m just trying to see if there’s a pattern or just some selection bias going on. From my view, Pete gets undervalued players to overperform and takes high value players who end up underperforming.
EDIT: To clarify- I meant that we signed or traded for and “paid” high value (lots of cash, traded players who ended up being stars, or high picks).

Marshawn Lynch is the obvious one.
Most guys listed in this thread, Marshawn, Jamal, Graham, Diggs, and Clowney, were not free agent signings
There haven’t been very many big money free agent signings under Pete and John period, which is one reason the Dre’Mont Jones news was so surprising this offseason. His contract is by far the largest FA deal PCJS have ever given out.
I think Duane Brown kinda qualifies as a high-value signing that really worked in our favor. But I don’t know if a late 2nd rounder qualifies as “high-value”… All the other high value ones like Adams, Harvin, Dre’mont sucked donkey balls. I’m a bit mixed on the Graham one since he did produce big numbers. Even though he indirectly neutered our offensive line.
Edit: Oh. and Sidney Rice. Loved that dude.
