Our core players aren't exactly in their final years, but in the same breath they aren't getting any younger. It's hard to keep a team together for ever, injuries occur, players leave via free agency, and their output just trails off.
If Mike and Marvin truly do want to win now is the time - period !! They don't have the time to just "build thru the draft".
Sign Z, Whit and Kirk for crying out loud. Cut the dead weight and the loser A. Jones ! And go sign a real FA or two and prove you are trying to win.
It's time
Sadly, with 1 year on his contract...I don't think Marvin is going to play a bunch of rookies and young players and develop them. Coaches typically play veterans as they have experience and make less mistakes. Playing young players would be developing them for the next coach.
We won't be rebuilding until we have a bunch of young guys playing.
The core is still intact. I don't think we need a major overhaul. Upgrade at Center. Bring in a good RB or LB like Foster in the draft...and I think we can win 10 games.
