There are lists on here where we have all, nearly to a man, went player by player and debated who should and should not be retained. Fuck man, there are NFL pundits- people that unlike us idiots on a msg board, get paid to talk about such things, that have basically done the same by going through our roster. In BOTH cases, we almost universally agree there are a BUNCH of fucking players that should either be released, or not brought back.

What are you not seeing? This team isn't good enough as constructed. That means there are a LOT of people on the team that need to not be here any more. Yet here we are again fucking developing straw men arguments as to why two old heads that can't stay on the field for whatever reason, warrant at least serious consideration for keeping. WHY? Isn't the predominant complaint about FBF that he refuses to go after other players- principally refusing to acknowledge FA as a real thing? Seems to me, that's what we ALL bitch about with the fucking dude. But alas, here we are, basically being Ballard! Keep what we got because at one point they were stalwarts. No, no, not any longer, this approach needs to be fucking burned and erased from the strategy book. New faces, new standards, new accountability!

You talk about strawmen, then argue to someone who's said multiple times in this thread that we should not resign Kelly and consider cutting Smith that they're obtuse or stupid because you think we should not resign Kelly and consider cutting Smith. Reading comprehension can be helpful, so can not just blindly raging about everything. So far, you've articulated half of a plan, but getting rid of players for more access to cap space does no good unless you have an affirmative plan to use that cap space on something that will make the team better. So what does that part look like for you?
