Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[cow]

I'm with you, to a point. But that point is: who's handling the ball? It's not quiiiiite to the level of an NFL team drafting the best WR or edge rusher in the first round if their next great QB is probably still in middle school somewhere, but after watching this team for the past two seasons, my mindset is heading in that direction quickly. Once both Flagg and this other mystery dude are in place, I'll very quickly become aware of 10 other needs and will be right there with you, philosophically, but for now I just can't get excited about watching what we just had to watch last season. I think it sells the team and Flagg short. 

The good news is that there's a very strong possibility that the BPA will be a PG, so maybe everyone will be happy with that.

Kyrie is handling the ball so we will not be watching what we watched last season.  I'd also be fine watching dreadful hoops next season and the following seasons as long as we are building something.  I'd also say that NFL Teams and NBA Teams make this mistake over and over again, though the NFL has the wrinkle of over drafting QBs because they are viewed as the most impactful thing to winning (which is a different debate).
