You really don’t know how to read. Just quit if you really need to mischaracterize everything and can’t see the value of having any good players.

The pro bowl is not a way to evaluate if a team has good players.

Spending future money to have good players now is literally unconditionally not a legitimate approach to rebuilding.

The pro bowl is not a way to evaluate if a team has good players.

It’s not perfect but when’s the last time a successful team in the postseason had ZERO pro bowl nominees. It’s just another indicator that this lineup has fallen into disrepair (and that’s not ‘cause of their historically frugal spending…)

Spending future money to have good players now is literally unconditionally not a legitimate approach to rebuilding.

I’ve literally never disagreed with you that wasteful spending is dumb but not every player is getting a 10-year Mahomes contract. You’re more likely to see a 2-3 year contract for a wideout that works perfectly with the ample cap during that window.

And to say pursuing a short-term veteran is never a solution to performance struggles is actually hilarious since it’s historically worked for a number of teams to get into the postseason and even win the Super Bowl.
