Maybe, but I don't think we overpayed for any of them.
I think they all seem to have something left in the tank. I don't think we have signed a bunch of washed up players.
The only one that got considerable money was Springs and he will be the biggest cap hit to absorb if he stinks this year and we end up cutting him. This is because of his bonus and the fact that it is amortorized over 3 years.
Taylor's cap hit if cut next year is 1.5M. He is only signed for two years, making an average of 2.5M per year. He is similar to Corey Dillon in my opinion... in that he is a fantasic RB with a proven career and about 2 good seasons left in him.
Giving Galloway a 1-year 1.15M salary is not much of a risk in my book.
