Running Back is the easiest problem to solve. There’s so many great options out there. We could easily return to the RB by committee formula that brought us success back in the day. Peat has been a problem. I see both rookies and vets that could stabilize that position for less money than he makes. I don’t see an issue at WR if we’re reworking MT. I’m not declaring him dead like most of the other contributors. We could definitely afford to upgrade at TE, but Juwan Johnson continues to make improvements every year. Backup QB is an easy fix as well. Dalton. Teddy B. Rookie. It’s a lot options. |

Point is, NO ONE else in the NFC is head and shoulders above the rest of the league.
