I put a lot of the blame for this season on the lack of impact players chosen in the '14, '15, '16 drafts. Most of our best players are over 30 or close to it. The rest of our best players are too young and inexperienced. The players selected in the drafts mentioned above should have been in their prime this season, unfortunately almost all are JAGs.

There is hope for the future. We picked up some franchise cornerstones in the '17 and '18 draft. With another good draft and a couple solid FA pickups we will be exceptional.

Yea, the biggest problem with Dave’s drafts is that we took a lot of stop gap players. If we can somehow refresh the defense next year complete with a new coordinator and head coach we should be fine. We have elite talent on both sides of the ball (Cam/Luke) that can outplay lousy coaching. I think a fresh breath of air and new system could really work in our favor next year. We have the building blocks to be great with poo architects

      Bryce isn't a risk-taking gunslinger.  That's just QB DNA.  No one has ever said that is what we were drafting when we went that route.  That's my point.  That's not Bryce. Can you make Alex Smith throw deep? Sure.  He will occasionally.  In the reverse, can you ask Brett Favre to just take the easy layups? Sure.  He can in moments.  But in the end, they are what they are.  as I have said, Canales probably could win more games with PJ Walker.  And Bryce is a better overall QB than PJ.  PJ Walker would also have much worse games mixed in that Bryce would.

      From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.

      Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.
