Sproles = best free agent acquisition of 2011 in the NFL.

Sproles would've stayed in San Diego if they would've offered him a multi year deal, as mentioned above, after he realized he wasn't getting it - he started to look elsewhere.

It was between the Eagles and the Saints, and in the end I believe it was more down to the playing style of the Saints - which is designed for a complimentary scat back - that made Sproles sign with the Saints.

Naturally that time spent over the summer training with Brees helped, but San Diego was his first choice, and Smith is so dumb for letting him go.
