But they dug themselves this hole and they need to pony up and figure it out. This is the time all teams strive for you can't sit on your hands anymore.
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.
