Honestly, there is only one theoretical weak point on this team. The Oline. And, by the logic given for every other position, we have talent there, so we should be fine.
The only difference between Ross, Mixon, Lawson, Willis, Jackson and Billings upgrading a position and Ogbuehi and Fisher upgrading the Oline is the fact that we've seen Og and Fisher go through rookie esque struggles.
Granted, they were much worse struggles than we would have liked, but there is a trend in terms of young players struggling early on. Not every prospect is a Joe Thomas.
I think we'll see a much improved Og and Fisher this year. They won't replace Whit, but they won't be nearly as bad as last year. Our weakness last year was, after all, the RT giving up sacks all day every day.
