Our running game is exceptional and our pass protection proved that behind Orton, they are fine. Our passing game improves behind a new QB and we need one more passing target (at least). And we need an offensive coordinator with an imagination.
Our defense, our pass rushers are outstanding, are ILBs are good enough, and Poe should hopefully continue to improve. Our secondary needs 1 or 2 pieces -- doesn't need to be pro bowlers, but improvements are necessary. Our DEs need to improve, but that's not a critical position. So essentially you're talking about a franchise QB, #2 receiver, a coaching overhaul, 1 or 2 pieces in the secondary, and hopeful improvements on DE (but not going to kill us if not. A good front office can easily accomplish that in one offseason, given our draft position and cap space. Particularly since a franchise QB and coaching overhaul are almost certainties. |

We need 6 or 7 new starters. QB WR LDE RDE ILB CB S And we need massive improvement from current starters at: LG NT TE That's not an easy fix. We need two offseasons, IMO, before we talk about serious playoff contention. Next season, if Geno is drafted and plays at a solid level I think we can go 8-8 or so. No better. The roster needs work.

SERIOUS contention. Too many people here are content with winning 8 or 9 games. Jesus Christ himself at QB doesn't make this roster a Super Bowl champion - and that's all that matters. Of course a franchise QB will make a huge difference. But until we start drafting better and signing solid FA's and not slapdicks, we're not going to become a consistent contender. |

It's not as bad as it looks. Like I said, it's a much better position than most GMs walk into. |

Everytime somebody says, "No, the talent actually sucks on this team" you get to ask them what we need to replace.
Is it Bowe? No. Is it Albert? No. Is it our passrushers? No. Is it our RB? No. Is it our starting CB? No. (especially was not the case when Carr was still here) We're talking about upgrades at WR2, TE, one or two spots in the back 8, and a defensive line that needs to be re-evaluated. That's a list you won't find on any Super Bowl teams, but give me a ****ing break if it's this insurmountable task that we will be lucky to get half completed. And let's not act like if Geno Smith and our new HC work out that anybody will give a flying **** about those positions listed. The QB masks about 70% of a teams problems if he's legit. So let's get the legit QB and worry about everything else at a later time. |

No.
We need to fix the defensive line and find a CB who isn't a burn magnet before the defense is legit. We basically have no idea about this defense in real games vs real teams because they haven't been in the situation but once, and they gave up 30 points (2010 Ravens playoff game). Does anyone think for a moment that if we were contending this year that Jalil Brown would not be a ****ing liability in a playoff game?

You come out of the next draft with a QB, WR, CB. Sign a free agent FS , grab some decent dlinmen and see what happens.

Jalil has been playing better as of late, but he needs to be upgraded.
Take the dline. Have them 1 gap with Poe, Powe, Pitoatua, Bailey, draft pick 1, free agent 1. |

Or what we could do at CB? Maybe flip a pick to someone for a starting caliber CB.
I'd sign DRC, or Grimes in free agency for cheap, spend some money on Byrd, or flip a pick to someone. |

To specify, all I'm saying is that we have the cornerstones in place.
Pass Rusher? Check Star WR? Check LT? Check QB? Not so much. If we hit on the QB, then we can start building farther along. But until we do that, it really doesn't matter either way. |
