It's not surprising. I think going into the season if you were objectively looking at the NFL you would've circled the NFC South as having both the worst QB situation and the worst overall offensive situation.

I mean, if you had an open NFL draft, how many NFC South offensive players would be drafted in say the top 100 picks?

Olave, Theilen (because hes a reception machine), Evans,  Pitts, London, BRob and maybe Godwin.

Ain't no way a 33 year old WR gets drafted among the top 100 picks in an open draft.

All depends on your goals I guess. How many teams would be thrilled to have a possession receiver that constantly finds a way to get open as a WR2? That's not easy to find anywhere in the NFL except for a few teams. If he played another 2-3 years, that's about what you'd get out of a WR from the 3rd round average anyway.

Our D has been an absolute disaster. As bad as the O has been, D has been the biggest issue by far. Our O is 10th worst in the league, bad for sure but nowhere near as bad as the Giants, Patriots... Meanwhile our D is 2nd worst, only better than Denver... I know we've had injuries but man Evero has been really disappointing for how hyped he was in the offseason and all the HC interviews he got

I'm talking about an open draft of current NFL players if you just took everyone and threw them in the pot and started the league over with an open draft.

There's no way in hell Adam Thielen gets taken in the top 100 picks. Zero chance. Hell, there would probably only be about 10 WRs taken total in the top 100 picks because teams are gonna be taking a lot of QBs, OTs, pass rushers, and CBs too. You're talking the elite to very good #1 WRs.

It's too damn early and I haven't had my coffee yet. I was thinking of just offensive players. Yeah you're right about 100 overall

NFC South is gonna be the pit of mediocrity combined with the stench of sucking for a while. 
Losing Brees, Ryan, Cam and whoever the Bucs had at the time turned this division into the division of meh. 
Falcons have no QB, they would be good if they did. 
Saints are just the Raiders now. 
Bucs are, honestly I don’t know, with a good QB they’d probably be ahead of everyone. 
Panthers are just how you don’t build a football team.

      I think you've nailed what we need right here.  Rodriguez and Thieneman would be my choices, Thieneman in the first and Rodriguez in the second. Let everyone else eat up their picks on the crop of WRs and linemen. Then make a push in free agency for the top center.

      Vernon Gholston vibes?  had 14 sacks at Ohio State in 2007; 45 games in the NFL:  0 sacks.

      I want a high impact player, but a true FS who could qb the secondary might be more effective than we realize.  I don't think Moehrig is that guy (I think he is overpaid, however).  I want a flashy, high impact player, but we could use defensive qbs at ILB  and FS.  By upgrading skill AND adding vision and leadership, could we get better than if we added an edge or OT? I am not sure that I believe this myself, but I try to look at things from all perspectives.  Here is some devil's advocacy stuff: 1. EDGE-We are freaking out about the pressure we put on the qb from the edge position.  However, Jones II and Wonnum missed a total of 22 games. Scourton was a rookie and Princely was a third rounder.  Wharton sucked (not sure if he was used properly--a hybrid who can rush from the 5 tech or 3, etc), and this put more pressure on Scourton and the other edge players.  This year, we get Jones II, Scourton should continue to evolve with Princely.  Perhaps another rookie is not what we need.  Maybe a veteran situational pass rusher.  2. OFFENSIVE TACKLE:  Of course, we need an OT, but the draft is loaded with OTs that can pass block but struggle in run blocking--so a rookie at LT might not be the answer for a team that wants to run first.  What to do?  I am not sure.  I see Nijman returning after testing the market, but who knows? 3.  INSIDE LB:  A huge need, regardless of how you spin it.  However, I see a few free agents who would be solid here, and I see the second round having a few ILBs with starting potential.  I do not see an ILB worth the first round pick unless a freak falls to us. 4.  With veteran defensive backs, a young, intelligent FS could fit in nicely. Intelligence is key--like the way Luke made the front 7 better. "A good, intelligent free safety (FS) acts as the "quarterback of the defense" transforming a unit from good to great by acting as the last line of defense, communicating pre-snap adjustments, and anticipating plays before they happen. By reading the quarterback's eyes and diagnosing offensive schemes, an intelligent FS acts as a "centerfielder" who can neutralize deep threats and mitigate errors made by cornerbacks or linebackers."
