And again, you're taking my comments about the front office and saying MHM made the claim of 2-4 years. Again, I don't think you can make this trade as a front office without the thinking that it puts you in the SB in the near term, 2-4 years.
And, yeah my expectation because they made this trade is that they get above .500 this year, are more competitive and put themselves into a position of attracting FA players next year that push them deep into the playoffs.

If the Donks were serious about building a legitimate roster...they would have kept their 9th/41st picks...maybe attempted to move down in an extremely deep class (minus QB). Let their new staff evaluate what they have..there are supposedly some elite QB prospects in next years draft.
Move up if you have too...but you have a cost controlled QB for 5 years and a better understanding what your real needs are...and the financial flexibility to address them.
I'll say it again...this trade was to facilitate the sale of the team. Nobody is more concerned about being a "name brand" QB than Wilson...his marketing strategy payed out.
He is easily the most over-hyped QB in the NFL...based on actual results (including post-season success). He is a good QB...he's not a Rodgers or Mahomes...not a franchise savior type.
The previous owners made hundreds of millions by attaching Wilson's name to the franchise....if the Donks crash and burn...it's not their problem now. Paton was their employee...
