I mean, Marvin wasn't tearing it up here until Zimmer's D came here. 1 winning season in his first 5 years before Zimmer came and some pretty bad defenses.

1 winning season is still lightyears beyond pre-Marvin times, but 6 of those 7 playoff years were on the backs of Zimmer-built Ds. (He wasn't here for '14-'15, but Guenther did his best to try to hold together the Zimmer D as long as he could but never managed to restock it, so it was just a solid slide down. Now we've seen how poorly Guenther has fared on his own in Oakland.)

If we get rid of Kirk, Dalton, and Glenn's contracts we have like 85mil to spend. We also have a lot of UFAs that I would like back, and if we lose them it means more holes in the roster. And we don't need any more of those. So I expect a bunch to get spent on our own again. We should get a little more consideration from outside FAs if we tell them we are drafting Burrow. So hopefully that helps our cause.
