Last years draft was a pleasant surprise and I hope they continue to use the trade down philosphy to acquire more picks even more in future years. Hopefully at some point they won't trade mulitple picks away in future years as I think the draft helps teams build depth at an affordable price and also helps the team get younger. free agency should be used to bolster a few positions here and there, but long term sustainbility is pretty hard if you simply try and buy your way to a title year after year.

As far a patience - I have read some on the boards here that Synder is giving Zorn and Cerrato 2 years to fix things. My take is if that even if the team does not make the playoffs next year as long as they are showing improvement towards the end of the year and not fading away the team, coaches and FO stays intact as Synder will allow them to prove themselves the next year. Many have said it takes two full years to truely implement the WCO, so being 50% there why not let itself ride out another full year and see what happens.
