Are the FA pitchers available any good?

I wonder if this is something sort of like I used to see in OOTP 2006 but haven't had a chance to observer in 2007 - that the game generated players with so little talent that they wouldn't be of interest to even the lowest level leagues.

I've always thought that was a flaw of OOTP - previous versions of the game generated an overabundance of one-star players who would hit .120/.140/.180 at the major league level, as if a player who could hit .200/.250/.300, or even .250/.280/.330, at the major league level would be helpful to any team.

The game needs to be unafraid to generate players who could hit an empty .230-.260 in the major leagues, or pitch with a sub-7.00 ERA.

If this is irrelevant to this problem I apologize for the rant.

Has anyone observed this trend in 2007? Is ksyrup's issue because the players in the FA pool are so horrendous they aren't worth signing?
