Not at the level people think.

We have a lot of trash on the defensive line and in the secondary that needs to be taken out.

Offensively, Dexter, Baldwin and our backup running backs are NOT GOOD PLAYERS, certainly not guys who deserve to be starting anyway, and I am going to pound that into this forum's collective head until they agree with me.

This team needs:

HC
QB
At LEAST one WR
A RB to compliment Charles, because I doubt Hillis is back. Droughn and Gray are very average players it appears.
S
Two CBs
Probably 3 new defensive linemen, barring ascendance from Poe or Powe. We have absolutely nothing at DE.

I am absolutely baffled how little safety depth there has been; since that Denver game in 2010 that Lewis missed w/injury, it's been obvious that anytime Berry or Lewis has been out (which is a lot) there has been absolutely NO back end responsibility, and P-hole has not addressed that at all...

...Rashard Langford and Shabby Piscatelli weren't the answer...

...and now, Berry and Lewis look to be drowning in the same foulness the rest of the team is choking on.

Not a good look, P-holey...not a good look.

I can live with Jackson on the other side stopping the run IF we had a DE opposite him that could put pressure on the QB. The NT spot is TBD.

The money Jackson is making, Dorsey is gone next year regardless, but I can't think of any 3-4 pass rushing DEs in a contract year off the top of my head, so that leaves the draft...and we need a QB...and most all pass rushing ends are gone quick. :\ this team has a LOT of holes.

**** YOU, P-HOLEY!!

The question would be if he would hire a 4-3 set coach or a 3-4 scheme guy

So do we even draft a qb if pioli gets the extension can he really say all cassel needs is protection. If he does that I'm done being a chief fan till pioli is gone.

Whoever comes in has to run some type of 3-4 or hybrid; it wouldn't have to be 2-gap, they could go like they did in Dallas and Houston and run the old Bum Phillips 34. At any rate, such an abrubt shift in philosophy would almost certainly result in yet another year of awful football.

We could switch to 1-gap right now and improve the defense dramatically. Passive defense just doesn't get it done in today's NFL. Even average QBs will pick it apart eventually.

YEP!
You have to have a great secondary hold long enough in a 2gap
Dorsey and Poe would benefit greatly
