This is it. People act like starting each offseason 60-100 million over the cap isn't hurting the team at all. Some even take it a step further and suggest that it's genius. Loomis and Harley are just ahead of the curve. Harley is just so brilliant that he does what others simply can't.
I just don't get it. I used to get it. I got it when it made sense. I was a huge proponent of going all in while we had the best QB and coach in franchise history. We only had so many years with those two together so of course you move heaven and earth to win now. The future didn't matter. All that mattered was that season. But then Jameis Winston of all people became our starting QB and SP pulled the eject lever and bailed. It started making less since then. Much less.
And it's not just the cap shenanigans. A big part of the all in approach has been trading away draft picks to move up and get players who can make an immediate impact. I figured that would fall by the wayside too when Drew finally hung them up. Figured they would get it together and rebuild. So what do they do? Immediately sell the farm for a WR. They let the draft come to them last year so I'm hoping they have course corrected on their draft strategy at least.
