They built the team that they have without having to mortgage any of their future so far. IMO, they also don't have any really bad contracts on their team. There are a couple at the higher end of market value, but nothing that I would say is terrible or an anchor. On top of that, they have a few real bargain contracts. They also have a lot of cap space, more than what they should considering how good of a team they have.
On top of that, they only have 4 players with trade clauses, and they are all modified, so they have a lot of flexibility to make moves.

A small market team operating like a small market team, placing emphasis on drafting and development. If there’s a model for the flames, it’s this.
