It’s actually a really good time to rebuild and cut costs. This year there’s no revenue so just get rid of all the big salaries for picks and prospects. Next year, no one know how that will look. Will fans flock back or will it only be at 50% or 75%? What if there are more covid variants? With so much uncertainty, it’s a good plan to operate at the cap floor.
Plus you start the rebuild now, by the time the new building is up, you should be right in that competitive window again.
There’s also a generational type talent in next years draft.
