I heard a lot of talk from Pete in his "state of the team" presser recently and he seems to be really excited about where the team is, stating that he feels he has everyone he needs to put a championship team together. So I'm just interested, who is the "new foundation" of the team?
Unfortunately Kam and Cliff are likely gone, Mike B. thinks he's gone, we have Sherm coming back from injury. I thought I would look at the roster and especially the young guys and see what we have across the board and what we need moving forward.
Please delete this thread if this has been discussed elsewhere.
Here are the new players that I feel are "up and coming" and "solid core guys" that can lead the team forward and have contributed.
Chris Carson RB
Shaq Griffin CB
Justin Coleman CB
Naz Jones DT
Jerran Reed DT
Dion Jordan DE
Nick Vannett TE
Ethan Pocic OG
And how they fit into the team and where we are "light" in depth.
QB - Wilson. Who knows with Davis/Boykin going forward.
OL - Brown and Britt are solid. Ifedi needs to move to guard. Fant is coming back from injury - move him to RT? Can Pocic play better at guard in 2018?
RB - Carson and Davis and draft a new guy. Biggest spot of need moving forward IMO. Procise, McKissic. Rawls gone.
TE - Who knows what happens with Luke Wilson. Impressed with Vannett this year.. Need more depth with Jimmy possibly moving on.
WR - Baldwin, Darboh, Moore. Lockett and Richardson are FA?
DT - Jones, Reed, Richardson back?
DE - Frank, Dion Jordan, Bennett back? Can Q Jeff contribute more in 2018?
LB - KJ, Wagz. Need to jettison Wilhoite and draft his replacement. Garvin, Alexander
CB - Healthy Sherman, Coleman, Griffin. Assuming Lane is gone. Resign Maxi. Thorpe.
SS - Need to resign McDougald. Can Hill step up and actually play in 2018?
FS - Earl. Will Thompson develop?
Kicker - Walsh is gone
Punter - Ryan is fine, had a down year.
I guess my point by doing this was to see what exactly Pete is so thrilled about. There's hope for the new guys, but haven't seen enough 1st and 2nd year contributors overall playing to really get excited.
Thoughts?
