As long as we retain BJ Hill, I'm fine. Has there been any news on that front? I haven't been keeping up.

Each grade in the low 70s on PFF whereas Hopkins and Adeniji graded out at 51 and 48 respectively. Joe Mixon also has to be salivating at this point. These signings quickly improve our run game.
Exactly, on both of these posts. We don't need the top guy in the league. We just need solid guys replacing the guys we had grading in the 40s and low 50s.
Don't ask "are these guys pro bowlers". They don't need to be. They're still massive upgrades and we won't be giving up 16 sacks in 2 playoff games anymore. We went from having 2 scrubs in the middle, to a pair of plus starters. That's HUGE.
That said, if Karras is replacing Spain, we really only upgraded massively at one spot. Still need to see how this stakes out.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
