I think depth in general on the roster is pretty good. Chido is a big loss but they have a versatile backfield, and they've been talking about showing more two-safety looks since the draft. Maybe this gives them an excuse to do so.
I think the one hole is maybe TE. I don't hear too much about that. Sample's out, we don't have wideout size that can be repurposed in a pinch (like Tate, for example), and the upside wasn't high to begin with. I don't know what the plans are for Asiasi and I'm not sure TE will ever be featured in this offense, but we've got a lot of eggs in the basket of one Hurst. Maybe too many. Just my 2c.
Cannot disagree, after Hurst we are pretty thin at TE even if I like how Wilcox blocks in the run game.

I want to see more inside push from Carter and Sample but its just not happening. I watch other teams that have those "guys" on the d line like SF, Tennessee, Dallas, Buff and now with adding Chubb ....Miami and we look quite pedestrian in comparison.
I said pretty stacked, too much to bring in another 3-tech and Carter and Sample are young. They could really improve
especially Carter in getting pressure in the middle, we will see.

Chargers should of traded him to the Raiders looking back. Bad move just cutting him especially after what happened
last night with our old DT Covington going down.
