I disagree. First off and the most important point in this post is that the only player that remains from the 2015 draft is Jake Ryan and he won't demand much money if we decide to keep him. We won't have to worry about the 2016 picks really until next offseason, but the only guy worth big money now is Kenny Clark. Blake Martinez and Kyler Fackrell could also be a possibility but there is a lot that can happen from now until the end of the 2019 season.The contracts all expire for Cobb, Clay, and Marcedes after this year and for Bulaga, Tramon and Daniels after 2019. In addition HOPEFULLY Perry the Fairy (2021 expired) and Graham (2020 expired) are just removed from the team somehow. By then you'd figure that'd give us more than enough money to retain Clark, Blake, and Fackrell to kick off the 2020 season if we decided to do so. This team is left with whoever you want to keep between Clark, Blake, and Fackrell to go along with Aaron Rodgers, Khalil Mack, Davante Adams, Linsley, and Lane Taylor as the only non-rookie deals for the 2020 season. Those guys get paid a decent amount, but you can't tell me there isn't cap flexibility outside of these guys.For the 2021 season, this would leave Aaron Rodgers, Khalil Mack, and Davante Adams as the only guys (as of today) on contract to go along with all the potential moves they make I discussed in the last paragraph. You then would extend who you would like from the 2017 class, which regardless is too early for any person to predict what will happen to those guys/how good they'll be 3 years from now. I didn't major in mathematics, but to say it's impossible to financially build a team around Rodgers, Mack, and Adams for the next 4 years is just wrong. Just needed to find a way to get rid of Matthews/Cobb before the 2018 season started. Only point you would have is adding Mack would stop you from adding other big time free agents over the next 3 years, which I could give a rats *** if you have these 3 guys as your building blocks.</blockquote>
