I really don’t see anything that we have done this offseason to improve this team.

The Dude · 04-29-2018, 09:19 PM

We got a good first round pick at a position of need but broke the bank on him. Seems like they were just playing with house money in Benson’s absence.
FA wasn’t any better. We pick up a decent “when healthy” veteran and an aging TE. I do like having Watson back but I don’t see him being a game changer.
We pick 2 CBs to throw into an already crowded backfield and a RB that we plain out don’t need.
We’ve ALWAYS found solid depth backs in UDFA. This guy ain’t no Ingram.

Please point out some positives

You mean the team who was one play from the NFCCG last year? The team returning 22 starters?

What did you feel we should have addressed?

foreverfan · 04-29-2018, 09:28 PM

We just don't have a ton of needs anymore.

Still, we upgraded both our LB and WR.
We filled in at TE and signed 6-9 TE Nate Wozniak!
We were the most injured team in the NFL last playoffs.
We didn't lose anybody of importance.
We are not depending our our #1 pick to own the defense to succeed.
We've had 2 solid NFL drafts back to back.

Dude.... you're hard to please. Put down the booze it is Sunday.

Is this a serious post?

Good Lord.

There's the "The Dude" I remember. Someone hijacked your account for a bit last year and was posting as you. I knew it couldn't be though because that guy was somewhat positive. And if there's one thing I've come to learn about you it's that the sky is always falling.

The Dude needs to get back on medications is all. I remember a thread asking what we used to sedate ourselves on game day and he mentioned anxiety medications. I see a different perspective when I take my meds too. Who Dat!

No I said BJ’s
As a matter of fact things are looking pretty bright as far as the teams improvement. Somehow I think they got better over night.

Upgraded every position group on the team.
We lost no one
We have numerous young promising players returning
Were you paying attention, or just craving attention?

While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole that he's in

Bob has "The Dude's" number...

But it's alright ma. He's only whinin'...
