That's new ground in the NFL by far.
It's going to put a premium on drafting.
What are your thoughts on team building?
The most important part of building the team is keeping Burrow & then Chase. 90% of sane fans would trade Tee for a good defender in a heartbeat. Tee seems like a package deal to keep them happy, so I'm happy to be built "wrong" in order to be built with Burrow and Chase, especially with nobody else worth paying short term and the downside of overpaying FA.
So, you build by hitting on drafts as others have mentioned. You take BPA leaning even more on need now, but if enough guarantees are back loaded or Burrow restructures then you land the Guard you need before the draft. Then hopefully you get a pass rusher in RD 1 or 2, maybe another guard or they sign a leftover or vet yet to be cut.
