I'm all for rebuilding and I think most fans would understand a rebuild.....but what kills me is that you have a Team President / HC that is getting, what $ 7M / yr. and there doesn't appear to be a long term plan.
The moves made this off-season (McNabb, J. Brown) appear to be "win now" moves....yet if you are in a "win now" mode why do you completely disrupt a defense that has good young talent along the most important unit, the DL. The change to the 3-4, is a 2-3 year project in acquiring the correct personnel. And with it being a copycat league and the 3-4 the latest fad, the "tweener" LB/DEs and NTs are going to be hard to come by. Yet, we have on the roster a superstar RDE, arguably the best 1 tech DT in the game, a solid run stopping LDE (Daniels) and a very good pass rushing LDE (Jarmon). Between the rest of the DL we have solid 3 techs and backups for a 4-3.
On the OL, no move was made at C and Rabach is clearly done. Either KL or Monty should be starting at C. I find it hard to believe Dock just went from being solid to stinking up the joint and benched, and Heyer while he struggles in space appeared to do well at RG against the Titans, why not see if he makes a transition to G.
You know much beter than I what goes on in the FO, but from the Lomabardi article and other bits and pieces I've seen, we need to expand/improve our scouting and have MS pay the hell attention to them instead of thinking he's the smartest guy in the room.
