Josh Norman CB is a Redskin

I think it means they thought they could lock up an all-pro corner at market value for the 2-3 years we hope he will be in his prime while continuing to build.

I don't think SM looks at things in such a short term as "We are going to win in the next 2-3 years and, if not, do a roster burn b/c the window will have closed on this lot." My impression is that he is building for a consistent winner and Josh Norman is a piece to that puzzle. I really don't think Norman's contract is going to stop us from continuing with SM's build model. If we don't end up winning it all with Norman in the next 2-3 years, then Fuller steps in and, having had time to develop, covers that piece of the puzzle.

Norman was a solid addition that makes us better and doesn't cripple our chances to continue improving the roster. Nothing more, nothing less.
