and we still don't have an ILB, OLB, or NT (or qb)

the problem is twofold:

1. bad draft picks
2. burning multiple picks in consecutive drafts on less important positions while ignoring critical ones

We had a good TE and traded him off.
We had a good nickelback and let him walk.
We already had Brandon Flowers and we drafted a less physical version.
I understand the need for a KR but Tate (while a legit slot WR) and numerous others LATER in the draft could have filled that role...
