My expectations were always the latter, but it seems like at the core that's part of what this is about.
I think we dont draft until the 4th round in 2018? I think thats your answer.

Significant assets were expended, I dont get the impression that this was part of management's anticipation to just be part of the pack dogfighting for the last playoff spot.
