How would blowing our salary cap on older players in order to get about 7 wins and 3rd place while moving back in the draft give us a better core of young players to build around? I would rather give our young players more opportunities, have higher picks, and have more cap space to keep our young players if they merit a second contract. While our team may seem young relative to the hospice crew we trotted out last year, we still have a ways to go to get young and hungry relative to the rest of the league, and we wont get there by signing aging vets to win 7 games that real contenders are unloading because they are on the downside of their careers. That is what the Atlanta Falcons did last offseason, and you won’t get anywhere emulating that sorry excuse for a franchise that has never won anything.
