Best non draft aquisition in team history

Who do you feel is the best non draft pick up in Vikings history?

I think Chris Carter is hard to beat,only setting us back 100 dollars from the waiver wire, but we must have other who can give him a run for his money. Hutch, Mike Merriweather, Anthony Carter, Jack Del Rio, Eddie Peyton, Stenerud...

Carter definitely, but I have to throw in Winfield there too, as he made me remember what a cornerback was, after watching the Denny DBs for so long...
