It can be done with proper scouting and development. But most of all patience.

Our team was one non-knee injury from making a good run into the playoffs last year (2012 season). You make it sound like our team is full of aging veterans and that we are starting from scratch.
While I don't expect a SB run next season, I think with the development of the young guys we've drafted and the young vets we have in place, a few key free agent acquisition and draft picks this offseason, can make us a playoff team sooner rather than later.
I don't want to see us break the bank on one player, but you can't expect to get every free agent signing cheap. Some people thought we overpaid for Gracon, but in the end he has been worth it.
