There is something to be said for experience. A lot of times, its the older players helping the younger ones to develop. Its not like you can cut the whole team, sign 53 rookies, and then claim that you are on the verge of a SB victory since the team is full of youth.
If the only thing standing in our way of a SB is a 30 year old safety, then we are much farther along in this rebuild than I could have ever imagined.
No one has said that McC can fill every position with quality youth in 1 year. He may be good at the draft, but we dont have 50 picks in this draft, we have 7. Getting some older players is going to happen.
