Being tempted by the win-with QBs. Trying to fit square pegs into round holes. Falling in love with one-year wonders. Those are just three mistakes that teams routinely make in free agency. Robert Mays and Nate Tice dive into those and seven more as we kick off free agency preview week on The Athletic Football Show. Plus, the guys jump back on the mics right after wrapping up the show to tackle the breaking Geno Smith news.
