I don't see the portal being a sustainable roster management/winning method. There just won't be enough top end players every year, and you would have to land ALL (or most) of them. The portal has a huge benefit for filling roster holes and it's great you get college film on guys but a lot of the kids hitting the portal are jags ending up on lower tier teams to finish their careers. 40% don't even make another roster because they're not good enough. Add to that a lot of portal kids will be 1-2 years max rentals. You miss a few years (assuming you can even get nearly all top end talent portaling), with no recruiting to fall back on and the roster is ****ed.
