The way I look at it, a STUD finds his way to FA only once every 5 years or so...when one is available, you have to jump all over him. There are a half dozen stars available every season, but superstar comes along only once in a blue moon. So you GOTTA go for it. At least throw your hat in the ring and give him your best offer...it may be 6 seasons before another comes along.
