He's locked in some type of time warp where he thinks Drew and Sean are still here. It's okay to max out during a championship run, not when you're rebuilding.
I don't know DC. In what way has he been maxing out since DA's been here..other than the 1st draft where we traded up for Olave and Penning because we thought we were still only two players away?
In the subsequent years Mickey has been handling the team, salar cap, and draft picks just like you're suggesting he should be doing.
