Stop restructuring deals, stop getting free agents like they are GOLD and play younger guys and build from the ground up. Every year we are looking at ways to cut this guy and that guy, or trade this guy to save money. We will be in same boat every single year until we just let guys contracts run out, and drop over paid players and let our young guys play instead of using the extra cap space and get free agents. I dont think its against league rules to have cap space available, is it?

I hear your frustration. But remember a couple of things. Since the free agency era, teams essentially have a 3-5 yr window to put and keep a quality team on the field, and hopefully get to the Superbowl.
This is just normal business in the NFL these days, IMO.
Also, I don't feel we are rebuilding simply because we have to manuever $10 million or so under the cap - there will be no overhauling of this roster this year or next. All and all we'll be fine.
Welcome to the NFL!!
