That's 9 more players up to 36. You figure we are going to be aggressive in free agency and add 4-8 more players plus adding in 7 (or more) draft picks, there you go. No-one is talking about a tear down to scraps and build from there, although looking at Tampa and KC makes me more willing to consider it!

We're going to have to build from the bare bones eventually whether we want to or not considering that we constantly eschew the least costly method of obtaining talent(Holding onto HIGH round picks) for "sure things" that are actually risky and do not allow for mulligans like the least costly method does. You flame out on a 2nd rounder. Fine. Next year you can pick again and you may still get solid depth or allow or cut the guy and UDFA/low rounder a chance. You flame out on McNabb, Jason Taylor, etc and you aren't even left with a depth player and could have filled the roster spot with a cheap UDFA or role-player from FA for the same amount of production.
