A one and done playoff appearance or a higher draft spot to shore up the O-line or D-line for the next four to five years?
If we finish with just 4 wins or so then it is going to be hard to get any decent free agents to sign here and the good guys we have may not re-sign.
If we only win 4 games then some coaches will also have to be fired, and it would make it harder to get decent replacements. Our current DC was like our sixth choice. We had college DCs turning us down.
And, finally, I believ there is something to the argument of "learning how to win". At some point players need to believe they can win to actually win. It has been 4 years since we had a winning record. A lot of players on our roster don't know what the mindset of a winning team is like.
