Well, that wouldn't have been hard to do if you take in to account that they lost:
Reggie Nelson
Marvin Jones
Mo Sanu
Leon Hall
Wallace Gilberry
Eman Lamur
There are four starters and one very important rotational piece in this group. They have successfully filled at least some of the void at WR, improved the situation at CB, and improved the situation at LB. Safety remains to be seen if Derron Smith can be a quality backup at this point and Williams and Iloka and become a potent due.
It is much more than just the +7 draft picks, it is managing the entire team and they have done that extremely well.
Also, I can't wait to see the compensatory picks for those guys next year. They are getting +4, and hopefully at least one or maybe two are third rounders. Don't forget that those are trade-able next year.
