Like drafting Cedric and Fisher to have them on the roster in anticipation of losing Whitworth and Andre.
If it works like a charm, then they simply MAINTAIN decent starting left and right tackles when Whitworth and Andre leave.
If it doesn't work out so well we get what we got - a DECLINE at those positions.
Net positive impacts on the quality of the team or Units on the team itself can be stagnant.
The plan was correct. Good teams want to have replacements trained instead of having to depend on a rookie to step in and start at a key position like LT.
The problem was with the players we selected.
