How long should a successful rebuild take?

I think every rebuild is unique.

If we TRULY went into rebuild mode, we really need 3 years to fix/reset the Salary Cap. Combine that with incremental improvements and give the new regime a chance to start fresh with the cap and 2 years of trying to sign some free agents.

5 years if we stop playing kick the can with and eat our cap manipulations.


This is a must,IMO. Stop kicking the can! We are already one of the worst teams in the league and we have the worst cap situation as far as I know. Just eat shirt for a few years and start over with a clean cap and 3 years worth of (hopefully) good draft picks to start with.

A team with some decent young talent and cap space is only a great HC and QB away from contending.
