I Don't See a Quick Fix

We need:

1 ) 4 new offensive lineman
2 ) A #2 WR. Maybe it's Ross. I wouldn't bet on it.
3 ) An entire coaching staff. I'd totally clean house as the guys that are here have been Bengalized. Plus, the coaches we get will have to be great at scouting and drafting.
4 ) On defense we need a DT and atleast 1 LB. (Minter is a free agent.)
5 ) There are usually new needs that popup that we can't anticipate.

So I've listed 7 starting positions that we need to upgrade. Lets take the defense out, getting 4 offensive lineman for a team that doesn't dip into free agency will be a monumental task.

We can draft lineman...but they are hit or miss.

Then Atkins, Dunlap, and Dennard are free agents after next season. I fear that atleast 2 of those guys will leave to go play for a winner. Why wouldn't they?

Even if we fix that stuff, largely the same management team that hasn't won a playoff game in 26+ years will be in place.

Do you guys see any quick fixes?
You need an offensive line.
A real one coached by a real coach.
Alexander is not a real coach and Ogbuehi, Fisher, Bodine, and whatever bum is currently playing RG are not real offensive linemen. 
Boling should be the worst offensive lineman on a good unit. 
I'm tired of picking skill players highly when we have no line.
It's like putting new windows in a home that has a crumbling foundation.
Show me which of Pittsburgh's skill players were high picks. 
Bell in the second round and that's it.
We've picked Green, Gresham, Eifert, Bernard, Hill, Mixon, Ross and have nothing to show for it. 
If you have five guys who cna block long enough, players who are coached well will find a way to get open. 
“It’s easy for everybody to say to make that change," Lewis said last week. "But ... when that change doesn’t work out, what do you do?"


Marvin Lewis on why he refused to make a change at the kicker position.
