No veterans traded away like Carson and Chad for extra draft capital, not even any compensation picks for 2 years in a row. The front office have handled this rebuild negligently. Eifert, Glenn, Dalton, Billings and maybe even one or more of Green, Atkins, Dunlap or Mixon should have all been traded last year. The failure to get anything for Dalton - in part because they tanked his value but also because they refused to eat the necessary money - has set the rebuild back considerably. An extra late second round pick would have enabled us to add someone like Damian Lewis or my choice of Josh Jones on the line.
I'm not sure we need a boatload of extra picks right now. We are pretty set at most positions. We can concentrate on offensive linemen. Maybe grab another TE if a good one is available. When our defense gets healthy we are pretty set. Running backs are locked up. QB is a given. We could use a fast WR not named Ross. If Taylor can get MB to grab a couple of more top notch players in FA, another solid draft ought to do wonders for this team.
