Obviously, the line is a huge question mark with Fisher struggling at right tackle, but let's hope he can finally put it together with being fully healthy and with Pollack's coaching, and Hart will hopefully push him. Glenn appears to be an upgrade at left tackle and is even glorified by some experts as one of the top ten left tackles in the league. Price can hopefully anchor the line and be the leader and strongpoint on the line that we've been missing since Braham. Guard is still a question mark and should be a good competition with Redmond, Westerman, Boling, and Hopkins.
The line could be, and (at the moment) appears to be, a weaknesses, but Pollack could turn it into a strength or at least a serviceable squad.
We obviously have AJ and Ross could be coming into his own, and LaFell is also average but, outside of those three, depth could be a concern at receiver.
Safety could be seen as a weakness, but I'm hoping that Bates brings some excitement into the secondary and is a force at one safety spot for us.
Is backer a weakness? We have Burfict and Jefferson, but will our third backer be good enough? Can Preston Brown get it done? Is Vigil improving enough? Rey?
I left off Marvin and I'm hoping that it finally clicks for him this year and that the assistant coaches help mask his weaknesses and that he listens to them. He didn't have coaches good enough to be strong enough minds to have an influence on him, but I'm hoping that they play a part in game planning and clock management this year.
Do you agree with my weaknesses? What weaknesses do you see?
Good thread Brad. RG and RT are the questions now and SAM Linebacker but with Westerman, Redmond, Fisher,
Taylor, Perkins, Jefferson all in the fold they might not be questions very long with our new coaches.
Just have to coach up our weaknesses honestly and with Pollack here the right side of the Line should get coached
up with all these guys. I think Malik Jefferson could be a great SAM for us. He was about my 4th ranked LB'er in this
Draft. Has great talent and upside, good tackler, great athleticism, knows how to engage and cover.
Jessie Bates III is a great ballhawk, just is very young just like Malik. Coach up his tackling and this guy can be a
Pro Bowler very soon. You cannot teach his ballhawk skills. Shawn should be used more as a Nickle Linebacker now.
