Agreed, but both teams also are fantastic at building through the draft process.
The reason I posted this was basically a reinforcement of how we undervalue the draft compared to other teams. It would be sweet to go into a draft with our full allotment of picks. I have no idea when the last time that happened.
Just because FBO's ranking has our youth lowest in the league doesn't mean we won't be competitive. It just goes hand in hand with the team's approach in recent years. Trade away picks for vets ad nauseum and you're gonna have an older team. It's not rocket science.
