And with regards to untapped potential still on the team, there’s Trapilo waiting in the wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all want the LT position settled, but when you have the seventh rated OL, in the first year of a system, that's a great thing. Add in that these five guys have never played together before this season. Braxton was always average at best, but coming off the injury made him worse. We could even sign him on the cheap, as he is still very young. I could see Theo taking over for Thuney one day. If draft day comes and the clear best prospect is a left tackle, I'm taking him. If it's close, I'm taking someone to get after the QB. We need that first and foremost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to stock that defensive line more than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to stock that defensive line more than anything else. The future of our Left OT does need to be addressed. However, this year we were all into boosting the offense. Mission accomplished. Next year, we need to address our defense's needs with the same aggressiveness. If we do —and succeed— we will have one hellava team. PS - Dump Hightower! I didn't like him when he was hired initially. I was disappointed when BJ brought him back. Enough, already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
