I'd like to see them commit to no panic moves ever and no trades involving giving up draft picks higher than a 6th rounder.

If they get in a bind at a position, they can make a trade, pick up a Free Agent, talk someone out of retirement, pluck someone off of another team's taxi squad, or have a try out for bartenders, carpenters, and fork lift operators who would like to play in the NFL.

Or even give a young backup a chance.

You made me curious, since Daniels and Buzbee went down at the beginning of training camp, are there still players tagged as practice squad players that would have been available. Purely in hindsight, I am wondering if we had brought in a carpenter/bartender as a training camp body, and waited. I am willing to bet there was no way JT would have made it with Parcells last year. Ah well, I liked the trade then, c'est la guerre.
