That is an astute question.
We'll just have to pick and choose the ones we want to pay, trade, or let walk. Then replace them with more rookies and stop-gap vets, which is what we're doing.
A few years down the road we'll be out of Clark's debacle of a contract and Chris Jones is off the books. We'll have more money then. So instead of paying one stud player, we'll be able to pay three solid players.
The days of our top heavy, juggernaut, style of dominating the NFL are in the rear view mirror. We will win with a well balanced team with a super star QB and great OL. Veach's knack for finding gems in the draft will be vital. I think it's the only sensible approach at this point.
