On O: Dalton, Green, Mixon, Gio, Boyd, Ross, Boling, Price
We need an entirely new roster of TEs and at least 3 new starters on the O-Line.
On D: Geno, Dunlap, Bates, Williams, Jackson, Hubbard
We desperately need a new linebacker group.
Honestly, with a competent coach, a couple of free agent signings and a solid draft this team could make a decent turnaround. But we're at best getting one of those so things will probably get worse before they get better.
Ross and Price are pretty bad right now. Maybe they develop? But, right now they aren't core group players.
Ross gets #2 WR targets with Green out and I don't think he's caught more than 2 passes a game. Maybe it's how he's being used. Maybe it's him. I don't think we know.
Price gets abused by DT's. He's got a lot of work to do.
Hubbard needs to improve a lot also. He does flash occasionally and make a play.
I wouldn't get rid of those 3, but they aren't solid contributors right now.
