Took way too long. Richardson should not have seen the field last year. When Pioli came in, this was the weak point of the team. Four years in he's finally got the starters settled. Just hope we don't have any injuries.

My views on Stanzi lead me to disagree with that comment.

Our starting lineups were severely depleted. Like, worst team in the league bad. After 4 years we are pretty much set at the starters. With potentially a really good to great starter at nearly every position.
It took a little longer than I thought, but Pioli has put a pretty good roster together. |

Yes, I know we suck at QB. Yes, Cassel is a hindrance. However, Pioli has turned this into the the NE team of 2001 minus Tom. If Ricky can play like that, we're ****ing set. |

Qb Stanzi
Rb Hillis, Gray, DMC WR Baldwin, Breaston, Wylie and DMC OL Asamoah, Hudson, Lilja, Allen TE Moeaki, Boss DE Jackson, Bailey NT Poe, Powe, Gordon LB Belcher, Houston (along with improving DJ and Hali with the coaches he brought in) S Berry, Lewis, Menzie K Succop That's a damn impressive overhaul of every position group |

I really wish we had deeper OLBs, but with Poe getting a pass rush in our nickel and Bailey having a big year,I think we're good for now. Hope we draft an OLB in our first 3 picks next year, we need someone to groom.

Sheffield and Studebaker are decent depth for now.

You aren't going to ever have great depth everywhere. You just have to keep drafting guys that fit and guys that are great football players.
We are actually at the point now where you can start making some bigger free agent splashes to fill holes. I'm not a huge fan of that, but if you are smart about it eg, Winston, it can turn out really well. |

Studebaker is virtually useless.

Decent and I think Cameron would be much better without his neck injury. Studebaker is fine, good in coverage. I just wish we had an OLB that we could plug in on passing downs if Tamba/Houston were hurt/gassed out.
