You're also saying that going 4-12 this season "would be a stepping stone to something long-lasting". Okay...what? Chris Simms is not a man we want to build around. Neither is Lamont Jordan. Defensively, we have acquired a safety who might last three more years.
I don't know what McDaniels means to do during the Draft. But if he is planning on re-building the Broncos that way, we're most likely looking at at least two years of losing. I don't know about you, but unless Tim Tebow becoming a Bronco is somehow thrown into that mix, I am not interested. And since whatever draft picks McDaniels will likely trade Cutler for will only be good during next month's draft, with its weak QB class, well...
Under Shanahan, we were a step away from becoming a playoff team. He would have addressed the defense this offseason. Cutler is not gone yet, but it appears McDaniels doesn't mean to keep him. A tear-down of that magnitude isn't/wasn't necessary. Starting from scratch is something an expansion team does.
