Ogbah probably makes the roster now as a DE and allows them to keep both X. Williams and J Hamilton.
Henne meh whatever. We aren't going to win anything with him or Moore or Shurmur or Litton.

Speaks was taken in the 2nd round after trading up. He's contributed nothing so far and likely won't contribute at all in year 2 either. This team has a problem with taking extremely raw DL in the 2nd or 3rd who aren't ready to contribute. At that point they end up having maybe a year or 2 of production, if any at all, before you have to pay them a veteran contract or cut bait.
Saunders is less of a concern because he was taken lower than Speaks and Kpass, but he still looks to be in the same category of player that likely won't contribute in their first year. I see a direct correlation between our subpar defense and our failed draft picks on defense the past 2-3 years.
But, back to the original point, Breeland Speaks ****ing sucks.
