After that they took a solid OG who fits there system. A system that appears to be outdated with the influx of 3-4 NTs that can play.

Then we take a KR/PR so goodbye Andre Davis, Jacoby your on notice. And finally another Hback? I know we do not have any healthy TEs but you can get TE as UDFA all day long. Dickerson could be a matchup problem. But he is not a WR at all.

I will not question the talent of each player, I will how ever question the choice of positions that they took and where they took them. Marciano should not be allow in the draft room any more, they entire 3rd day other than Shelly, are ST only guys on this team.
I agree. Where is the direction? Everyone here can talk about how this team is addressing the line but I don't consider massive reaches and 5-6 rounders as "addressing the line". When you can't punch it in from the goal line and your running game gets stood up at the line of scrimmage... It's not your running backs fault. And drafting two tight ends every year is not going to solve any problems.

They've done alright. we got the big RB in Tate. Wade Smith can be LG, Caldwell at C and Brisel can be RG. if he's healthy, Chester Pitts still hasn't signed anywhere.

Holliday replaces Andre Davis which is fine by me. I thought Davis wasn't very good on kickoffs for most of the year

Where is the identity of this team? That's why I struggle with this team. If it's marching up and down the field between the 20's... I get that... and I think they're doing a knockout job. But if it's putting the ball in the endzone and stopping the other team from the endzone inside the 20's then they're missing the boat.

When you watch this team there is zero push on either side of the ball.
