I agree that there have been multiple years where the MBT hyped up getting some big name FA, only to flounder to the finish line with dregs.
The two above are successes, but in both cases I'd say there was serious buyer's remorse within the first season after they came on board.
I'd also include Wes Matthews. He ended up getting a pile of money because of the disaster that was DAJ's non-signing, but was never the near-all star he was in POR.
