They went out and got Dexter Jackson and Sam Adams in FA and spent three of their first four picks on D(Jonathan Joseph, Frostee Rucker, and Domata Peko). Unfortunately, Adams had nothing left and Jackson was solid but unable to live up to the SB MVP hype.
Really, it was injuries and off-field distractions(we had 8 different players with legal issues that year) combined with a lack of strong leadership that killed us.
It's true. Dexter Jackson was hardly a Tier 1 or 2 free agent.
Sam Adams was at the end of his career. We didn't attack free agency with the urgency of a team that was only a couple of pieces away.
