The cap savings mitigate the laws. But at the end of the day you still have to get players to fill the holes that you're creating with all these trades and cuts. Given the general sentiment regarding our current management I'm not so sure why this is such a cause for celebration. Even as a person who has faith in Caldwell's ability to draft it's going to be very difficult for him to get all those holes filled filled with good players. On the defensive side alone there are a minimum of six holes will have to fill, including both CBs.

Don’t rush to judgment yet. (Although we’re doomed anyway IMO lol). Caldwell understands he needs to win sooner rather than later. I doubt they use all the picks they’ve acquired for the draft. I expect to see a few trades for some vets in addition to some aggressive free agency moves (whether we land the target or not is a different story). All I’m saying is there are still moves to be made.

Problem is now we have another gaping hole. 1 FA CB and 1 in the draft? 2 in the draft?

There were only like 2 players on the defensive side of the ball the regressed bad but we saw there weknesses in the 2017. Barry Church, maybe T.Gip or Malik Jackson, Poz was slowing down down a little, but you build  on Everyone else that you have, free agency and draft to shore up weak position, not let everyone go and try to justify. The front office made the most mistakes and have not been accountable for [BLEEP]. 

I understand a short window but the whole D should not be gutted by the 3rd year, that is the front office making a lot of mistakes and they are still here [BLEEP] up the team

And Tre Herndon sucks, I don't know why people keep acting like we have one of the cb positions locked down with him. He was getting abused in live play, not analytics. Please don't try to see he was anywhere near the level of Bouye

My issue now is, if we are blowing up the team, blow up the team coaches and all....we need a complete haul, get Caldwell and Marrone the [BLEEP] outta here asap. 

Also don't take this personal, I'm venting because I feel like with no experience as a gm, alot of our fans could have done a better job.. this is crazy. We might really have a 30 for 30 on us

With the moves this team is making and the approach they seem to be taking, I have no doubts Khan has told them they have at least 2 more years.

Tank for Trevor?
