Look at what is out on the field right now. The can is long past 2028 with Robert and Crochet in the picture. The can is already flying into the next decade. You can "tolerate" whatever you like, but there is no way to make up a 50 game gap between where we are now, and where we need to be to be a playoff team with the talent in the system right now. It just isn't there. Keeping 2 good pieces actually slows the process of getting enough talent into the system, and doesn't speed it up at all. As of today you can squint and see about half an offense? Where do the rest of it come from by 2028, because it sure isn't free agency.
