I think we just take the L and recognize LT will be very difficult to draft but it’s way too important to risk. Maybe make an exception there.
I threw out an uncomfortable conversation point last year that maybe feels a little more real now. We caught lightning in a bottle with the defense but it is just a bear to maintain. We’ve used a lot of our very best draft capital on defense and been content to plug in JV starters on offense. We are going to lose guys like Snead and we probably should think twice about even guys like Bolton. Seems we’re ripe for a pivot where we should ask our offense to carry the defense again.

I was in the minority that I leaned against resigning CJ, because of basically this argument. And worries about his production versus cap hit at the end of that contract. But that is what it is and he is obviously carrying the pass rush. So go CJ.
But yea, without continuous great drafting, you end up with JAGs because you can't bring in expensive FAs and resign all of your own talent too.
