Lewis was crap, Routt was crap, Silar was crap and of course, Dorsey and Jackson were non-factors. Bailey regressed, Pituatoa and Smith were underwhelming, as was Jalil Brown and Abe Elam.

If not for Jamaal Charles, this team would have been 0-16.
I agree with this for the most part. Unlike most however, I feel that the new coaching staff can fix at least SOME of the suck. IMO, some of the suck was caused by scheme, terrible coaching, and zero accountability. I just don't think some people realize how pad Pioli ****ed this franchise over. The terrible drafts, the misuse of players on the roster, the inability to find competent backups at almost every position. If even some of that can be fixed, it helps a ton.

My hope is that a new QB, combined with stopping some players from continuing to suck will propel this team to 7 wins in the first season. Anything more than that is wishful thinking.

Here's what I would do, for the starters, for depth, i leave that to people who know a lot more than me.

Get 2 new QBs in the draft.
If Reid decides we need a WR, I am fine with that, but I also would like to give Breaston / Baldwin a year with a passing offense / real QB. Either way Breaston is gone after 2013, so grabbing another WR this year or next should be on the TDL. Sign Bowe, period.
I'd actually like to see a FA RB thumper brought in not named Hillis.
TE shouldnt be drafted, as I think that Boss/Mo are serviceable.
Franchise Albert to see if his back is good. I think they should get a center in FA just in case.

The d-line needs help, but we cannot afford to spend a 1st, or 2nd round choice to help. Look to FA. Same with the LB core, grab a ILB to play next to DJ.
If you dont take a WR in the 2nd round, it better be a CB.
I'd move Berry to FS and consider drafting a SS, but that's just my opinion.

I've seen enough of Succop. Bring a FAR into camp to compete with him
Sign MVP to a lifetime contract.
