So we might drop a bit at G, but improve more than enough elsewhere to make up the difference then sum. Or not sigh a G and sign guys at different positions, then draft 1. But the same thing would still apply.

You basically are looking at signing 1 A+ player for 1 year or 2 c+/b- players.
If we were cap strapped this would be a no brainer, but we had the cap to bring in the guys they want - and we seemed to get good talent at good price. So the question becomes is it worth breaking a part of the team that is set (right side of line) over an extra c+/b- player in an area of the team that is weak.
I can see the argument both ways, but I am not going to fault a FO that so far has done solid moves and market evaluations because I, an armchair guru if i may say, deems it to be the lesser choice.
