The defense is pretty bad this year

..same as Dennard was drafted to replace Jones/DreK

..fact is that these draft picks which look good on paper have led to a drop off in talent this season. 

It may primarily be coaching as some say but I just look at the talent level and believe we are simply weaker in too many positions this year

I agree with you, these "value" picks have been killing our roster.  I'd like to see them target specific players that they have put in the scouting time to know for sure that they are going to be good fits in what the team is doing.  Even at the cost of moving up or down in the draft, and possibly sacrifice drafting an extra bench warmer or two.
