Good question. Most of those holes have yet to be filled, and I feel them every week.
I'll just say Hurst because I'm thinking about the TEs right now (I can't walk and chew gum at the same time :p). We've gotten no production from them. Two first downs in three games, no scores, and you'd think we'd be all over them with Joe's calf and this need to get the ball out in 2.5 or less. It has not materialized. Now Irv has somehow pulled a hammy, he was made of glass to begin with, it's just... it doesn't bode well. We need to do something about that position imo. If we could sign Hurst that would be sweet.
2nd choice would be Bates. I found it always helped to have a guy back there who knew what he's doing, who was like an extension of Anarumo on the field. Dax is improving and he'll get there, but for now we're seeing some growing pains. His overall PFF grade is 59.3, Bates was always 10-20 points higher and this year he's at 91.2 (!).
