Count me in the crazy crowd
I like BStein's post on this. There are many steps to become an elite playoff team. We're still taking baby steps. What does a restart on the rebuild even look like? Trade Cade and hope we get a draft pick/player that is as good as he is? And if all of our players suck so much, we're not getting anything in return for them, so it doesn't make any sense.
I'd like to continue with what we are doing - getting young assets and keeping our cap under control. And it's not just cap space, it is not having bad contracts. We can always trade anyone as long as the contracts are not negative.
I posted this somewhere else, but what if we get Monk, Claxton and Miles Bridges each in the $20-25M range? We can do that without trading away any picks or players.
Cade/Sasser
Monk/Ivey
Fontecchio/Thompson
Bridges/Stewart
Claxton/Duren
That may not win any championships, but that's a start. And last year's starters are pretty much next year's bench. They don't look as bad in that light.
So call me crazy, but there's hope.
