You develop young players and then you pay the ones that are vital to your core and let others go, you then draft more talent and develop it. This way you are keeping the great players developed in your system while bringing on board cheaper younger talent. Some really good players you have to let go to keep the really great game changing players, ie, wood and jennings. To do this you have to manage your cap. You don't go out and sign other teams castoffs for big bucks. This is how you keep a team competitive and in the hunt over a long span of time. Or you can use the Washington, Dallas, Philadelphia model and spend big bucks on free agents, its worked out really well for them hasn't it. Would you like to see Arod or Clay playing against us? Who would you replace them with? Know any free agent QB's or Pass rushers of their caliber on the market, and if there were, what do you think you would have to pay them? Plus you would have to integrate them into our offense and Defensive system. How many years do you think it would take for them to come up to speed in such a complex system. Draft and Develop Baby.</blockquote>
