Sounds a lot like Polian. Spend money on the edges, find value at the interior. Find guys who played 3+ years in college, guys who will or did graduate, guys who were team captains. Try to keep them if possible.
I still keep Nelson. He is a great player. He is the best Colts guard, Ive seen. Dumping talent doesn't make sense. He rebounds and has a great season, it will benefit the team. Get him healthy, and the Colts will run left all day long. Let Raimann learn from the best.
Get Nelson healthy and lean on his Leadership. What he can do, when healthy, cant be measured by analytics. Its football, where 11 guys working together make it happen. Its not baseball, were one guy has a big impact
