But youre ignoring the fact that we’ve pulled very little from the last two drafts, while contending teams like the Eagles and Niners (who have each been to multiple Super Bowls in the last 8 years) have stacked rosters (SF) or have supplemented their future spending with a lot of recent draft picks (PHL).
We haven’t. We’ve just managed to go all-in for a second time. So if you’re going to be a team using void years and dead cap money, you need to have something to show for it. All we have is similar to those teams is heavy debt in 2027.
We’re more like the Saints than the Niners or Eagles.
So to say using future cap money to contend for a wild card position is normal, is absolutely foolish.
And with Tua, Waddle, Philkips and Holland coming up for new contracts soon, all we can do is further compound the problem or continue to see players we’ve drafted, leave.
FOOLISH business practice.
We’re on the verge of being in a 3 year draft drought where we have the fewest picks draft assets in that time frame of any team in league history and we’re operating like a team that missed the Super Bowl by a couple points and not a team that was just lucky to be in the post season to begin with.
The Eagles have quite a few players they expect to be around in 2027, who can we say we expect to still have in 2027, as do the Chiefs.
