If the last point is true, I would have reservations that enough would have been done to get this team to approaching the playoffs for 2021.
I think rolling with same team, getting Reader and Waynes back, and adding the draft would result in probably 9 wins max.
Like I said, I tried to keep it as realistic as possible. I would rather have Lawson, WJIII, and Alexander back than someone from outside and I just don't know if they would have the cap space to do much more. I did make improvements on the offensive line with two really strong tackles that allow me to move Williams to LG. Also was able to add a beast of a DT in Barmore and an all-over speed rusher in Rumph. Schartz would be a great compliment to our WR corps and also added talented depth at CB and TE. There are only so many things you can do in the draft and FA with a cap and current players salaries.
Sure, I could say I also brought in Joe Thuney, but I just don't know if the cap space is there.
