Off-season priority

Obviously we have plenty of needs, the most pertinent determining who our next HC and starting QB will be. Outside of this we need to be looking at the rest of our offense.   
 

Specifically someone who can get open and catch a pass. DJ is too hot and cold. TMJ ain’t it. Our TEs can’t be relied on for anything other than blocking. CMC obviously masked this deficiency and it’s glaring what our identity has been the last several weeks which is severely problematic when your RB averages less than 3 yard per carry multiple weeks. 
 

Saints now have 2 young and hungry studs at the WR position and if they settle their QB position it will be the same song and dance we’ve seen in this division all over again via Michael Thomas, Julio Jones, and Mike Evans setting records on this secondary and us not being able to keep pace with scoring.
 

You guys want an offensive minded HC? Great.

We need some offensive players too.

For all the pissing and moaning about QB, there is nobody to throw to.  I hope this rookie QB can throw to himself.

Which is why we need a decent OC. They can scheme guys open. 
The QB is also a disaster. 2/9 for -4 net yard and an INT is unacceptable. If we want to give him credit when he throws check downs an Hubbard takes it 40 yards he gets some of the blame here as well.

That was definitely a bad throw. Everything else has been bad today with the exception of Hubbard. I’d give Foreman some love but that selfish retaliation is going to cost us way more than the Saints lost.

Yeah they ran a rub route with DJ across the field who got switched on a LB.  FINALLY got open and Sam found him.

And Sam fumbles into the end zone where our backup guard bails him out… 

Yeah, that sucked, but a TD none-the-less.  Also, if a new OC can scheme the WRs open, then the QB can find them.  As of now, the WRs can't get open and McAdoo can't scheme them open, except running them all the way across the field through the zone hoping for a mismatch.  I wonder how many more times that play will get dialed up.

McAdoo can’t scheme them open quick enough and Sam can’t handle pressure. We need to replace both (Sam’s fine as a backup).

For the most part Sam has done a good job of not taking the sack today. I haven’t been clocking the snaps but he sure as hell doesn’t have a lot of time and every time they pan out no one is open.

I will not argue that, BUT the problem I have is the clamoring for  a rookie QB when we are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo deficient on the offensive side of the ball that a rookie QB will not make on bit of difference.  Actually, he will likely make things worse because of utter lack of help around him.  At least a veteran QB can handle the adversity.

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
