Tate will walk and no one knows if Arian can stay healthy so a RB is a must. Their OL blows and I don't think they'll be able to keep Wade Smith so you're looking at needing two or three starting OL. And then the most important position on the team is still a near total unknown. I like Case and I think he can play but a new coach (I'll assume just for the hell of it that Kubiak will be fired) will surely not want to go into his first year with Case at QB.

This assessment is so sad and mostly true. The team won't be exposed soon. They've been exposed.
Brooks Reed and Mercilus make me wonder what Connor Barwin's been up to lately. How disappointing is that?
Someone mentioned hubris. Perfect.
Bullock for a 5th rounder.
And I want to like Keenum. I really do. But he is a career backup. Can a new coach return this team to the playoffs next year? Absolutely. Even with Keenum. But Smith needs to go with Kubiak.
