Posts about bringing back past their prime players when they know they will never be what they once were only magnifies the dilemma the team faces when trying to reinvent themselves. While veteran presence is a positive thing you can't sacrifice replacing players who are the future. Whit, Burfict, Dalton and even AJ are not the future of the franchise. Do you re-sign any of them when you could get a better younger FA player? The remake of the team is stunted when we ignore the obvious.
The best antidote to this is by replacing them to an equivalent of cheerleaders. Nobody wants to keep re-signing those aging cheerleaders now, do we?
Joe agrees!
