Houston has plainly not been the same since his knee injury, either. Aside from Chris Jones, Ragland, and Kendall Fuller, there aren't really any ascending players on the team with upper echelon talent that have shown much. They're really going to need Kpassagnon to improve and hit on some of their draft picks, because not only have they lost a fair amount of talent, but a ton of leadership.

How could we know that yet? Veach has some cash.

There are way too many holes to fill and not enough talent out there (plus depth) that you can do it all in ONE offseason. This looks like a 2 year plan at least.

Ron Parker wasnt good but it's just another need a starting safety. Where are they going to get it? Draft? FA? I guess that guy could be better by default but very well could be some nobody. It might even be someone on the roster already like Sorensen or Murray. What a shame that would be.

I mean, we’ve got to do something. We’re releasing some turds... who cares. Losing Peters will hurt, but Parker, DJ, Tamba, hopefully Zombo, I say good riddance. It’s like drafting Mahomes, he may flop, but at least we tried. Our defense just flat out needs some changes.

It's a welcome addition.
