Even if we justify that our depth is sort of more proven than other teams (Volson, Ford, Lee) but can someone make a case for 5 teams worse that us?
Other teams have hope for their rookies, have guys getting healthy, trust their coaching staff, we aren't unique. I'm doing my best to check my bias on this position group stopping us from a SB win, but I can't move from being bitter at the FO all the way to seeing what they never fixed as being the 27th best IOL in the league.
I think Ted makes us better than around 5 teams, he is solid and should be much better with better Guard play around him. Patrick's PFF
grades were way higher in both pass and run blocking for the Saints than Cappa and Volson. The question is can Patrick stay healthy. I guess
I just really like the Fairchild and even Rivers picks. I think Fairchild will definitely be better than what we saw from Volson last season.
I think we are upgraded, the question is how much?
