Thus far the results are looking a bit worrisome. But you're right.
Hiller - He's been fine. He's a placeholder with a short term deal.
Engelland - Overpaid for sure, but he's a placeholder, plus he helps them reach the cap floor.
Bollig - Replaced McGrattan, really hasn't been that bad. Much better since being paired with Stajan.
Raymond - He hasn't been good. But again, placeholder and they've gotta reach the cap floor.
Setoguchi - We knew he was a reclamation project. Low risk, medium reward. Didn't work out but I can't blame him for trying.

The team is rebuilding and they needed veterans to create competition. None of his acquisitions (aside from maybe Hiller) were meant to be big important pieces going forward.
