We've been saying this for over a decade now. I think if things play out in a way that makes it conducive to rebuilding we'd have done it / we will do it.
It just hasn't really played out that way yet. Being in a soft division definitely doesn't help. It's tough getting a top 5 pick and landing a highly touted QB prospect when you have a veteran roster of mostly good guys and you play in the NFC South. There's no universe in which we don't win at least 6 or 7 games, even in a "bad luck" year like last season where we lost so many 50/50 games.
Also, we have been more disciplined with moves recently. We've retained a lot of our draft picks and that's a low key way of rolling over the roster and making it cheaper.
There's no reason why we can't win the NFC South this year and next year while still getting a healthier long-term financial future.

This is where I’m at. Let’s try to win with what we have while getting the cap situation in good shape. The division isn’t good enough for us to successfully tank. We’re almost assured to pick in the mid range regardless. So let’s just play and see what happens.

That's not bad luck, that's bad coaching.
