The game has changed, players are fitter, dont stay in the one position and can cover far more kilometers. Shake up the foundations to create more space and directly address congestion.

his engine isn't up to it yet. He gets run off his feet in the midfield, and I think thats where we see a lot of his stumbles n fumbles n whatever else.
For mine most players should be available. A lot deppends on the quality being offered in return. I really do not want more draft picks but ready made players who are young enough in their career that we can get 5-7 good years out of them. Should that be offered in return for any player it should be considered.

My theory on what happened - the opposition teams have coaches too and they studied the squad and realised we could be intimidated eaily (still a challenge) and that actually our kicking was only ever average - as such players came back the next year being pressured like never before and most did not cope. Add to that a lack of infrastructure and free fall ensured.
