I hate going back to this as a comparison but NJ is doing what they are dong with most players drafted in 2017 and later. Seattle is putting together a playoff quality team with their prospects and every other team's castoffs in year 2. 10 years is a bit extreme. tearing it all down to bare bones shouldn't take longer than 5 years. This length also seems to hold true in baseball. In theory, we "should" already be 2 years into this.I'm seeing less "Improve what we have" and more "throw out absolutely everything and start over from scratch with a completely different philosophy". You realize that that last means our next playoff appearance will be sometime around 2033, right?
The worst part is that I feel like our management of this process is closer to the Edmonton Oilers than they are an actual successful team.
