We have 8 guys that play regularly graded as Poor. Boling has really tanked the past few games.
The guys are Lafell, Fisher, Ogbuehi, Hopkins, Bodine, Boling, and Andre Smith. TJ Johnson also grades out as Poor.
Our offense ranks #32 in the league and we're rushing the ball for 3.1 ypc so not surprising.
I'd love to see Westerman, Dielman, and/or Redmond given a chance.
Defense:
We have 9 guys that play regularly on defense that grade Poor.
Jones, Kirkpatrick (actually grades out worse than Ced. They have him listed as the #111 CB), Shaw, Fejedelem, Evans, Vigil, Billings, Sims, and Glasgow.
There are some fixes I see here like starting Jackson and Dennard and moving Shaw back to CB from Safety. Jackson and Dennard grade out way better than Jones and Kirkpatrick.
Out of Billings, Sims, and Glasgow...Billings needs more playing time as while they are all Poor...Billings is much higher rated than both.
Overall:
We have 17 guys who play regularly who are graded as performing Poor this season. That's a recipe for a 3-5 team.
Sadly, we're not a new HC away. Or 1 or 2 players away from competing. We have some major roster issues.
Maybe a new HC can get the performance up of some of these guys though by teaching them nuances.
It just pains me so much for this coaching staff to not just admit that younger guys CAN BE BETTER. Chris Simms believes we have a possible top 10 corner in WJIII.. and we barely see him! That's INSANE!
And the offense line man.. just put the younger guys in and see what happens! It sucks to see so much potential just tossed aside, especially the WJIII decision-making. That honestly frustrates me the most.
