Yeah, Weezy, it's a fine line to walk. Because this strategy may never result in being the "best" version of ourselves or a title. On the other hand, overdoing it the other way turns you into a team that has a strict "x" year window before you get priced out of your players and go into cap hell...and that might even not end with a title either.
It's the same debate we all have with free agency. One side can point to the "dream team" Eagles, Redskins of the mid 00s, or current Dolphins and say, "do you wanna end up like THAT?" The other side can point to the 2015 champions and say, "Where are the Broncos last year without Peyton, Aqib Talib, Demarcus Ware, TJ Ward and Emmanuel Sanders?"
Honestly there is no "right" answer. Personally I would sacrifice being irrelevant for the next 10 years if you could guarantee me a title next season. But with no guarantees, I'd have to opt for the way we do things currently. More bites at the apple this way. More chances for us to have the ball "bounce our way", so to speak.
