Building the MONSTER

It seems to me that Grigson and co are looking to build a team very similar to the Cowboys of the early 90's, Troy Aikman=Andrew Luck, Emmit Smith=Trent Richardson, Reggie Wayne and Hopefully Ty Hilton and DHB in the future= Mike Irvin, decent middle of the pack defence If we can just improve our Oline to at least mid range talent in the next 2 years.... I am really excited about this team in the next 5 years, not saying it will happen this year, but personally I predict 1 superbowl within 3 years and 2 or 3 within 6 years.

Early 90's Cowboys? Try the '99-'06 Colts. Peyton, Edge, and Marvin 2.0.

The only problem, don't mean to be a downer, by the time this thing starts to roll, and I believe it will.  In five years our great rookie class and now TRich will have to be paid.  There probably will not be enough money to go around, just speculating I guess.

We don't look anything like those Cowboys.  Luck and Richardson are very physical players who have no problem with contact.  Aikman and Smith avoided contact like the plague.  Cowboy receivers were over 6'3" tall and liked to push off, while our guys are shorter and faster.  Wayne is a better technician than any of them.  I've always said that Deion Sanders and Larry Allen are why they won Super Bowls and we don't have anybody like them.
