Nick has built a low risk, high reward SB caliber roster…

Have to give him his flowers. There will be risk of production fall off from some of the older guys or even injury but that can happen to anyone. The upside is that they are already super productive and can help win a Superbowl. This is the obvious stuff.

But let's also look into the future. A lot of these moves are basically built on giving us a 2-3 year window to win a Superbowl without losing draft capital or having to struggle with salary cap. Hunter will be up in 2 years, you can move on from Diggs after 2 years… you can move on from almost all of your big contacts including Tunsil/Howard all before you have to pay Stroud, Sting, Dell and Anderson. But also, you can use your draft capital (because as of now you haven't actually given up any of your regular high value picks) to build underneath what you have so realistically you can become dynastic.

As a bonus, I don't believe that there's any big paydays coming up outside of Collins next year. You can just add more talent with your picks and then pay Collins 20+ mill without hurting, especially if you roll over some cap from this year.

The only thing to be concerned about is dead cap but with cap space increasing and most of your roster already locked in, I'm not worried.
