They did and here we are. There's arguments, as you've said, for why you shouldn't but that's.....I dunno I don't think you can view things like that.

I feel like they didn't really build around Toney as much as they banked on either Toney staying healthy/productive OR Moore improving.
To this point they've gotten neither.
I think they figured at least one of those 2 possibilities would hit. And they didn't have the spare capital to really create a 3rd.
I mean ultimately think about how badly things would've gone last season without Pacheco. That's the cost of busting on a 1st/2nd round pick you're counting on to start. Pacheco as a 7th rounder performing like a 1st/2nd day pick bailed us out.
So Moore busting left Toney as the possible 'salvage' and if he's not performing, we're reaching deep into the bag.
