The list goes on and on.

The man took the job in mid-January. It's not like he was hired in early April.

I guess he could have signed some of those guys. We didn't have a coach until what, the end of Feb? I agree with you that more could have been done. But, I guess I agree with Keg, in that I think this is a long term plan, not a fix it now plan. I do agree with you also that to some extent, this year is wasted, just not completely. They found out all this here
1. they have a pretty darn good RB, but need another to carry some of the load
2. They need TE's
3. The entire O line sucks
4. D line is in good shape, but could use a nose guard even if for depth
5. We are good at corner
6. We need major help at safety
7. Cassel isn't gonna carry the team on his back. He needs playmakers.
8. Need receivers, bad.
Now, alot of us here thought the D line was crap. Most here including me thought Charles was decent for a third down back but not much more. I really think this season was a waste for us as fans, but not for the GM.
