Another went from a guy that’s been consistently one of the best edge rushers in the NFL to what we’ve seen these last 5 weeks whether it be due to injury, playing on a new defense in a new scheme, or a combination of the two.
The third hasn’t quite played like a core guy up until this past week. Unfortunately for him, the two huge plays he made didn’t result in a win.
When you have all that and nobody that fits that bill at CB and LB, you get what you’ve had these first 5 weeks.
That doesn’t change the fact that those other guys have been good moves by Veach that are being ignored. You can’t have great players at every spot.

Most of them were lateral moves at best. Breeland was a big upgrade as was Mathieu.
I don't know how in the **** people are high on Wilson. I guess when you're used to trash LB's a below average back up caliber player is impressive.
