Money is everything in NFL free agency... EVERYTHING! It's kind of an oxymoron too, when you think about it? Let's face it: There's nothing "Free" about signing players to an NFL roster...
NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal has the number of signings by each NFL team to date for 2015, and the Rams lead the way with the fewest trips to "PlayerMart". St. Louis has signed only SIX players this off season:

The Sam Bradford trade loosened up some needed cash for Rams GM Les Snead. Adding offensive linemen hasn't garnered much of the free agent budget so far? The signing of DT Nick Fairley and OLB Akeem Ayers bolsters an already stacked defense. So I guess the portent of the coming NFL Draft at the end of this month has been dialed up just a bit?
