...but, oh!, the moaning and complaining that went on when we tried out Christian Wood, he didn't work out, and we let him walk!
The difference is that we spent a first round pick on Wood. It was a late first, and we did clear a lot of junk contracts, and we probably got the guy we would have drafted at the cost of two seconds, but we still gave up draft capital. In this case its more of a salary filler move.
