Hartley certainly isn't having any part in talking, but you have to wonder about the strategy from above with those signings.

I feel like the strategy is pretty simple, they're low risk low dollar signings just in case the kids weren't ready to step up this year, and worst case scenario, you have two players making the nearly the league minimum sitting in the pressbox. There is no downside to the signings that I see...
