I think your reading comprehension needs to be examined.

Not someone hired 3 years ago.
I think your situational awareness skills need to be examined. He can PROJECT all he wants. If he doesn't upgrade 700 plus pilots from FO to Capt by mid to late 2017, there ain't gonna be a 2.5 year upgrade for a new hire TODAY. If you are an Envoy guy, pull the seniority list yourself and see. It's BLACK and WHITE. There's no way possible for it to happen unless you see 700 plus upgrades over the next eighteen months.
