It is gonna hard to be worse in some areas (IOL, S, HC).
We have a TON of glaring needs: both guard spots, DE2, DT (at least 2 if not 3), S, WR2, WR3, TE1, better speed at LB, RB2.
It is a lot and we may have to live with some warts.
But some guys flashed at times tonight. Ossai got a sack (or half one). Fig made some plays. ADG & Pratt made some plays. Murphy applied some pressure a couple times. Jackson flashed a time ot two. Heyward. Williams had a nice return. Hudson made a nice play.
We cannot afford Rankins/Scott/Stone level whiffs in FA, nor Burton/Carman/Murphy level whiffs in the draft. And there is not enough money to fix everything in FA. .
But FFS, Volson/Cappa/Ford are not starter level. Rankins has to go. Bring Tee back. Restructure Burrow. Extend Chase. And Trey. Stop insisting on Stone Age contracts.
