This is still very much a rebuilding team and all they're doing right now is peddling hope.
Win now moves is how this franchise ended up in a perpetual cycle of suck every time there was the slightest glimmer of a brighter future, but least the grown-ups are finally in charge and not some tiny fantasy football fantasy GM wanna be shyster.
Don't get me wrong, it's fun being on the winning side of 30+ point outings, but this team is not winning the division, and Jayden Daniels will not be in the conversation for MVP when this season is done.
Oh, absolutely not. This is a ten win team and they will win the division. You can put that in the bank. I'm more concerned about what happens next year - if you've got a superbowl quality qb, how do you chart a path to the superbowl? Following the Bengal's path of going all in on offense and criminally neglecting your defense is not the way. The Bengals are sliding backwards now. The commies have an offense that is good enough to win games. Now you address the defensive side, and if you luck into a good offensive player in the later rounds of the draft fine, but your top picks should be defensive players, your top fa acquisitions need to be defensive players.
Just continue drafting. Right now, we have 9 picks next season. We had 9 picks this past offseason, right now 6 of them (from what I can tell) are all contributing including potentially a franchise QB and a cornerstone left tackle. Its imperative that they continue to draft well because as players become more expensive, you're going to have to supplement that with players on cheap contracts.
As for the offseason, we have a ton of cap space, my guess is out of WR/CB/DE, 2 of those get addressed in free agency.
