I did not read any comments but I can tell you the real answer. There is no definable time table for a complete rebuild. The reason is very simple, everything about the NFL is a lottery.
It starts with the QB. Every year teams take chances both in the draft and FA, hoping to hit the jackpot and find there next franchise QB, and every year teams bust.
Next is the coach, and yes as we all know, coaching is very important. I have no doubts that some very talented QB's have had potential careers destroyed do to poor coaching.
Then of course there is the draft as a whole. We have already seen both how one draft can drastically boost a team, but also how years of poor drafting can lead to aging vets and a lack of young talent.
The NFL is a crapshoot. You need to nail the QB and coach and then you need to hit on the draft to surround the team with quality players in all the important positions.
With all these variables at play you can get very lucky and maybe it takes a few years or very unlucky and your stuck in purgatory for years and for some teams its been decades.
