[QUOTE="GreenBaySlacker, post: 762816, member: 9780"] I admit I could go either way. Hold the Thompson core together another year, and collect a handful of high comp picks when they don't get resigned. Field the best players available next year..... But where the math leads me... Thompson spent his cush. Got us some splash free agents. And it blew up in everyone's faces when #12 went down. We didn't sign #12 long term yet. Based off the salary cap topic, it said with the high end of cap being raised... we will have about 10 million cap space to retain our own free agents, and pick up any others along the way... that would bring us down to zero for carry over into next year. Thompson left us with 10 mil cap carry over from last year. If we enter next year with nothing, that means we spent 10mil over the cap in 2018... that's spending all 10mil on free agency, and giving the current team one last chance to get the ring. Worth mentioning the cap might not be raised the max amount, so 10mil might only be 8.... This would surely be followed by a total rebuild , possibly from qb, on through. Me. I'm already over the loss of all three. Moved on. Looking at what we have left, and the roughly 44 mil in cap and a draft...First things first, give most of it to #12, and carry over as much into 2019 as possible. Get the ship going in the right direction. Trade back a half dozen times in the draft, and add 15 rookies to the roster. Make sure the oline is solid for #12s golden years. Or something close to that [/QUOTE]
