Why so much upheaval?

I am really tired of the concept that the skins "turned over their roster" or that we changed 25% of the team (according to P. King).
We have:
OFFENSE
The same starting 5 on the O-Line. All of whom are quality starters (not pro bowlers but solid starters - guys who could start for any team).
The same starting TE, RB's and QB and primary WR.
THE ONLY CHANGE TO THE OFFENSE's STARTING LINE UP IS A NEW NO. 2 WR AND A NEW BLOCKING TE.
DEFENSE
A new starting DE (but the same 4 starters from last year).
A new WLB
A new Safety
Other than that, the same players who have been together for the last 3 years are still here and the heart of the defense (Marcus Washington, Shawn Springs, Sean Taylor) is the same.
This IS the same team as last year with some upgrades.
But yes, we did cut Cory Raymer and that will probably screw up the team's chemistry all year long.
