I've acknowledged it plenty of times. I don't care as much about loading up on free agents in ways that don't destroy your long-term cap. I don't see the issue in loading up one year to get the team back on track so this team can be competitive as they rebuild.
My approach depends on Dorsey being very good in the draft. I get that you would be skeptical on that. I am too. But I don't see why the approach I favor is so out of left field. This year, in order to do the things we want to do to sign our guys, we have to tinker around with restructuring existing contracts and we give up opportunities for free picks. Both things I don't want to do. Last year, we didn't have that issue.
