This is just normal business in the NFL these days, IMO.
Also, I don't feel we are rebuilding simply because we have to manuever $10 million or so under the cap - there will be no overhauling of this roster this year or next. All and all we'll be fine.
Welcome to the NFL!!

We have been in that window since 1999. Going on 7 years. I would have much rather taken a year or two hit to build for something, rather than building SOMETHING every year. and that something has been mediocore teams every year. Just like last year, and the year before we will have to cut players to get under the cap, then Dan and Joe will go out and overpay somebody to come here. When we should draft a young guy and let them play. I am sick of this plan danny has, we need to start building youth. I say it all the time, Look at NE, Philly, Cincy, Indy, Steelers all these teams that struggles for a couple of years, and now they have a core group that compete every year for the playoffs. We cant even buy a jersey of a player because they leave after 3 years.
