So how excited are you about next season with the moves so far this offseason?

As I see it, I think it is going to be an interesting season.

No one wants to call it what it is but it is a rebuilding offseason. They drafted players that will be the core/back bone of the team for years to come.

I guess it depends on your definition of rebuild. When I hear rebuild I think of a team that plans to compete in a year or 2 instead of right away. Way too many glaring holes to be a contender.

I think we're re-tooling the roster.

When I think of rebuilding I think dumping of veterans to sign as many young people as possible. Putting in a rookie or first year QB and drafting and signing players around that position.
I see what we are doing is just planning for the future. We have a good mix of young guys and vets. The young guys will come into their own, some quickly, some over a period of time while the vets will keep us playing at a high enough level to compete. The pieces are still in place to win now.
