Let's go through the roster
Qb: bottom 3 qb
Hb: dime a dozen
Wr1: top 8-15
Wr2: wouldn't start on a competent team
Wr3: wouldn't start on a competent team
Te: dime a dozen starting te who is a lazy blocker
Lt: horrible. Near the top of the league in penalties despite playing 3 games. The other can't block
Lg: horrible, had 1 good game against one of the few defenses who gets less pressure than we do
C: horrible
Rg: could be good if he stayed healthy maybe
Rt: rookie doing rookie things. Plenty to point to bring better or worse than you think he is
Edge: see above about being one of the worst at pressuring the qb. Sweat is a top 15-25 edge we paid top 5 money and a high 2 for. He's not a bad player but he's not a game wrecker like the bosas or watt or garret or even old mack like he's being paid at.
Dt: see above about no pressure. Qbs can always step up on us. We are doing well against the run though, but that only matters when you aren't a liability in pass.
Mlb: mid at best despite high pay. Sanborn is a nice story. But he's just a guy
Olb can't do anything well
Cb1: top 7-15 at his position
Cb2 mid
Cb3 bad
Ss okay
Fs stopped wanting to tackle years ago and lost the ability to get turnovers.
We're a bottom 5 roster with a bottom 5 record. If we had a better qb we could over achieve like the texans. But we don't. So back to back earned top 5 picks is what we are. Fans will have their bias and think everyone is better than they're and convince themselves we're just a qb and center and someone on defense. Then coaching will fix everything. Like how we just needed coaching to fix nagy...then suddenly the team was so bad we couldn't possibly do anything other than earn the #1 pick because we traded mack for pennies.
And it's not looking good about keeping our corner right now with poles bundling yet another negotiation.
