Is it time for a rebuild? That is the million dollar question IMHO. If so, aging (close to 30 or above) vets with huge contracts are expendable as they hamper the ability to rebuild (2 to 4 years) to a winner as by the time we have the roster, they likely will be on the downside of their career or done.

If true rebuild, I say purge the high salaries and get picks in return and get rid of cap liabilities.

Low balling a player and Troy sending a text to Whit's agent that Whit's value wasn't there is hardly trying to sign him, unless a moron is doing the negotiations on our side. They could have just paid him and fitted Troy with a dog muzzle.

In rebuilding you have to put young quality players on the team. I honestly don't think our front office has that ability. I fear we are looking at a multi-year slump. We just re-signed Gio for no particular reason at all.
