Stafford would have been nice, as would Grant. A stud MLB to replace Hurl would have been great. O-Line help would have been awesome. There wasn't a ton of OL help available in this FA draft, so what exactly were you expecting there? The fact that we have a real good line backing corps has already been pointed out, And remember, it's February. There will be more roster moves before TC so try and salve your disappointment, Edited February 11, 2016 by WBBFanWest bigg jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely the best OT in the league? A Canadian DE with 23 sacks in the last 2 years? They are no names to you but anyone who actually follows football is very aware of who they are. Maybe you got your helmet done up a little too tight there chief Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labatte/Best/Capicotti/Bagg gives you 4 good NI starters, Demski may be 5. Still need two more and the depth behind the, is lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueballz Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Chambers over Demski? Not sure about that, got a hunch Demski will be a bigger part of their offense this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a slight on Campbell as he is a good player, but he is not the top OT in this league. He's about middle of the pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People forget about last years signing during the season. I think we have a better MLBer than Wild, his name is Bass. I would be surprised, if they decide to sit Hurl, if it wasn't Bass at Mike and Wild at WIL. Wild/Bass/Leggett or Randle would be a very good LBing corps.

Mr Dee Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 In relation to the total makeup of our roster, we are severely low in numbers at the O-Line position. As we ventured forth or fourth, from last season, we can see Walters had a SMS plan, and a plan entering FA. He's following that plan, and right now, we're better off for it. Walters also said they're comfortable with the makeup of the O-Line, and he stressed, "at this time". It seems they have an idea on what to do. They have a plan. Good gawd, I sure hope they do.
