Yeah...EVERY YEAR in the NFL teams have injuries. This upcoming year, we will likely lose several starters too at some point. It's just how the league works.

IMO that's all on drafting. When you draft good every year, you get depth.

Our rosters 5-6 years ago when we were drafting good had decent depth. Now...not so much. We don't even have league average starters at 5 or 6 positions.
