I don't have any issue with the plan through 2020. My issue with the plan is now. It seems disjointed.
Most of it comes down to my perception that they are lame ducks and need to improve probably 2 games from 8-8 in spite of having what looks increasingly like it will be a team with less talent.
Moves like Andy Dalton and keeping Jimmy Graham make me think they don't have any idea how to maximize talent under the cap. Then they lose Fuller. They seem to be going after offensive free agents, but only at below market contracts. If they are trying to get better, they haven't succeeded to this point in the off-season (still have other avenues, but early FA wasn't kind to them).
But let's say that they are rebuilding. Then what's with pushing a bunch of money into future years to sign a second bridge QB? Why keep old Jimmy Graham? Why cut Fuller and not Hicks?
I don't have a high level of anger (I've calmed over the last week), but it feels like a wasted, rudderless year is coming, at the end of which Pace and Nagy will be fired. That just gets frustrating. I've said before that I expect Soldier Field to be cold and lonely in December and I stick by that.
