It's about getting bodies in camp, ramped up and ready for the regular season so you have competition and depth, and more importantly depth that is ready to fill in if needed.
EXACTLY!!! I don't understand the thought process of waiting for cuts....this would mean we sit on our hands and do nothing for two weeks. What we have done is brought in two guys to compete and add depth. If anyone better is cut later, we can still pick them up. Seems crazy not to do as much as possible when you are talking about the most glaring weakness on a team.
"The most glaring weakness on the team" was inherited from last season for the most part. If it is still after just one injury to a basketball player, then not enough was done when we had the chance (or what was done was largely ineffective)
What is not to understand on those who say wait?
It is like a sale. Do you pay full price today, or wait for the sale that is 2 weeks away? Either scenario, you pay the panic premium.
You seem to conflict yourself within the same post.
On one hand, the team isn't doing enough to improve the line.
Then on the other hand, they should do less to improve the line by doing nothing for two weeks and wait for the cuts, instead of bringing in a few new guys now while STILL being able to sign cut players later.
This is why I don't understand the logic. Either we need to do more because it's important to the team's success, or it isn't that big a deal and we should wait for two weeks and hope for the best.
Which is it?
