Free agent hits/misses

I know this staff has taken heat for free-agent moves but I noticed that 13 of our 22 starters are free agents. That kinda surprised me.
So I made a little list of hits and misses. After looking at it I think this staff is better than most think.
FREE-AGENT HITS:
J. Horn
A. Brooks
B. Williams
S. Folau
K. Jacox
V. Riley
J. Carney
J. Pathon
M. Lewis
W. Gandy
F. McAfee
_____________
W. Whitehead
F. Thomas
J. Bellamy
D. Smith
D. Rogers
O. Ruff
M. Chase (wish we had kept him now)
S Gleason (for ST only)

FREE AGENT MISSES:
N. Hand (a hit his 1st year though)
G. Jackson
A. Connell (top bust)
D. Sloan
C. Keaton
D. Carter
H. Ford (although he was always just back-up insurance)

JURY STILL OUT:
T. Jones (big salary puts him here)
E. Conwell (mostly a hit, but time will tell)
A. Ambrose (debatable, could also be considered a hit)
Z. Hilton (has more hit potential than miss)
F. Brown (cheap guy may still develop, Hawthorne w/out the attitude)

Anyone care to add someone?
