I find the news of the cap increasing scary for us as an organization. The last thing we need is another excuse to further the "free agent" player personnel philosophy. Winning teams succeed by acquiring quality players by every avenue available. We cannot win by only adding old "has beens" and "maybe's" to the team.

I know coach Gibbs and Danny have both thought this was a winning formula but it isn't and our age is showing. This is especially true on the defensive side of the ball where team speed, aggression and durability just aren't there. The cap increase should be looked upon positively but only if we invest it diversely. It has come up on prior threads that Dallas and San Diego are in great position to flourish because of there willingness to make risks on youth, and developing their own players.

I think the most important thing to do this off season isn't to acquire some big name. It's to re evaluate ourselves. To admit we aren't on the verge of a super bowl and only need a couple key (FA) pieces to get there. This would mean changing Gibbs and Snyders minds. As well as probably firing the entire front office. Its equal to a revolution but I think this needs to be done.
