Weisbrod talked about how they studied rebuilds and looked at why teams failed. Some teams took 10-12 years, while some took 2-3 years to turn it around. The main thing they concluded was it was the type of players they brought in to help the younger players. You need good people, and I think that's why they are targeting character and hard work a lot. Not just with prospects but the types of free agents we target and trades.
I really hope that they figured out the key to a successful rebuild. From the outside its starting to look good, but we won't know until we make progress with the young players.
