I just don't see how you land the truly franchise changing players without accepting that period of suffering and getting to the draft picks with the highest probability of doing that.
My thought is you don't have to pick either lane.

Make individual player signing decisions independently.

Tighten the controls on asset management.

Don't use futures to prop up an average team.
