Defense is two starters away from being very good.

If these two positions can be upgraded this offseason, this defense will rank top 10 for many years. I a not even talking superstars at FS and MLB. I am just talking average starters in the NFL. That would be a huge step up. 

We need MLB, FS, maybe a 5 tech, stud 3tech, CB, WLB

Those are all desperate needs except maybe 5 technique. We need a Myles Garrett opposite of Burns.

Just like when we had Green opposite of Lathon.

If we can get a competent MLB  (not even Luke level, I'd be happy with an AJ Klein like player) and another DL man to get doubles to free up our Edges or Brown...I'd be ok with Boston back there as long as Burris is there to hold his hand.

Also, if we're "fine" at safety. We're "fine" at QB as well. 

I definitely want to upgrade from Teddy, but it's an insult to Teddy to equate him to the offensive version of Tre Boston. Honestly, they're kind of polar opposites. I think Bridgewater is making the most of his physical talents while I think Tre has the physical talents to be a much better player.

Tre makes mental mistakes, misses tackles, and generally appears to display 1/2 effort.  I agree with your statement.

Fair assessment, and I won't argue with it.

I agree but I'd add CB. I think we're playing off WR's to prevent getting beat over top. 

I don't remember Whiteheads contract but maybe we can keep his as a backup.

      Top 5 draft targets for positions of need

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Daniel Jeremiah's top 50 players heading into the Combine.  Lol at the people still pining for Styles.  Dude will be LONG gone before our slot as I noted he would be.  Go ahead a keep drafting him at #19 if y'all want to keep ruining/making unrealistic mock drafts.   https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2026-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-2-0

      NFL Free Agency

      Kmet is better than just 'meh'.   Mayer took a back seat to Bowers and is another TE that would relish a chance to start again.  Sanders, Temble and Evans is a better group of TEs than we've fielded during the Ian Thomas era, but it's far from stacked.  That's the problem, our TE room has sucked for so long now that  being 'better than crap' is apparently good enough--which it is not.

      Why? Feels like we got a whole TE crew of almost Kmets. Loveland surpassed Kmet easy and relegated Kmet to Tremble like stats. Kmet’s decent years were because of volume. Kmet had over 90 targets twice in his career. Tremble’s career high in targets is 37. Tremble could produce Kmet numbers with the same volume so why would you ever go for Kmet? Loveland or Bowers type studs, go for it. Meh TEs, we’ve got plenty.
