First and formost Signing bonuses. That is how it's done. Everyone is freaking (including me) about how washington can do it with being so far over. Signing bonuses. This is where Ralph just doesn't have it. it is 1/2 he doesn't have the personal resources and 1/2 he is unwilling to pony up as much as other teams.
Now that aside, we need to show players Buffalo is a place where top FA's want to go. how do we do that? Sign some solid FA's, Draft well, play some good football. This is the other reason I say this is a two offseason retool.
Dick Jauron will be a huge factor in this. How he coaches, what the current players tell other players will be HUGE toward signing top FA's next year. Showing improvment on the field, running good systems will play a large role as well.
If marv can solidify DT and some of the Ol. Trade moulds, find his replacement then this sets the foundation for what I am talking about. There is only so much we can do in our current situation. Marv's hands are tied until we show some progress and I really think we can.
I know it is hard, but lets give the org a clean slate under marv. I feel he understands how to build this right, lets give him a chance.
