We had 2 1000+yrd WRs and very promising young talent, not to mention we are looking at the best passing offense in the NFL. This draft is rich in talent on the front 7, we should load up as much as possible. |

We can move the ball up and down between the 20's with the best of them... But we often struggled in 3rd and longs and in the red zone on particularly crucial conversions and it showed in the W-L column...

But since age has caught up with Colston and the Graham trade, we haven't had that defense killer that kept drives going or that jumpball red zone threat.. |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
