yeah it's kinda where the Raiders went wrong with McDaniels/Ziegler and that disconnect between the roster you have, where you finished in the standings, and thinking that either the coaching or the team is better than they actually are and going all in on winning now, rather than honestly assessing where you are and building a roster accordingly.
Pretty sure DeMeco doesn't think you're two FA signings away from being long term competitive.

Lots of Texans chat around signing Saquon and Mike Evans (Galveston Ball High School) which is insanity. We are more than 2 pieces away from going deeper in the playoffs and that assumes we retain the same large group of players that just became Free Agents.
Volunteers, not Hostages as Tomlin says.
But also no Mercenaries.
I would rather build around draftees and smart FA signings.
But unlike most people on t'Internet, I am aware I am not the GM. The last couple of years has taught me to trust the process. Our most recent draft classes (away from Stroud and Anderson) is a vindication of the process.
