My point is we havent traded or signed a true superstar like CJ since CP (who set the skins season rushing record). comparing CJ to the likes of lloyd and jeff george is ridiculus imo.

go skins!

KB - i think what your trying to say is that instead of throwing big money at CJ now and handcuffing our abilities to add elite talent in the future, we should hold onto some loose cash for a year or two when the team will be 1 superstar signing away from being a SB contender then go after that 1 missing piece? makes sense and i concur.

go skins!

Thanks. That is what I was trying to say. We've been making trades and spending wildly in free agency for too long with very little in the way of championship-like results. I think two VERY GOOD drafts will get us to a point where we can acquire that big superstar as the last piece.
