We've got two very overpaid players on defense in Will Smith and Roman Harper...

We've got first round busts in Sedrick Ellis and Malcolm Jenkins with the jury still out on Patrick Robinson and Cam Jordan...

And where we've done fairly well in Free Agency - we've not been aggressive enough; take the money paid to the aforementioned players and get people in their that are younger, faster, stronger that are going to make big hits and plays...

Let's give opportunities to Corey White, Rafael Bush, and Martez Wilson - there's a ceiling to what you can learn on the bench...
Rugby Saint II and Joker like this.

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Let's also remember that Spags did not have a 1st or 2nd round pick either.......most of your impact players come from there.

Spags has been put under a bus and has to crawl out from under it. Without any help thanks to Godhell.

Ellis is a bust, Smith has lost a step, Harper is miscast and Jenkins play and field generalship is dismal on his good day, I totally disagree on Jordan he's looking like a force to be reconed with. Robinson will be fine in the backfield if we get a true FS back there that can read the O and line them up properly instead of guessing, I'm all for letting White,Wilson, Bush, and I'll add Quaddus to the mix to see much more time in their respected positions they might add that much needed spark and may be the answer at their position, it would be nice.
