I just don't see where this retool fix is as those players typically only become available via top 10 draft pick.

Yeah getting the game breaking core player is never easy.
I'm just saying this isn't an aged out team with 34 year olds on long term contracts ... they have a lot of good young pieces.
You don't have to tear this down to the studs to go forward.
Maybe you move some assets, gain some futures, and finish with a top ten pick one year, draft well and bounce back.
We've certainly seen that.
