I predicted this going into the game. A blind man could see that coming from a mile away. What I didn't see coming was how bad this defense could truly be scheme wise. It needs a complete overhaul. Sadly we also need another RB and a couple more WR's as well.

Scheme of the D is great. Talent is abysmal.

Yeah, but Evans and Irving were better than anything we had today. We definitely need to draft and develop better. Been like that for years though

Irving was one of the pups, though.  I think they had two young Divsion II WRs out there today.  People here are quick to point out Coker went to Holly Cross and that our WR corps is so crappy having to ask a D-2 guy to step in the lineup.  The Bucs have a couple of D-2 guys at WR and don't need to make any excuses for their passing game.

Really? I mean, I fully expected this defense to be completely eviscerated today without Horn and not having a run game on the other side to minimize their time on the field.

The soft zone allowed 2 no name players to look like pro bowl players out there. They left Evans wide open on 3rd down time after time. Evero is done here.

Theilen would be a #3 on most other teams. No shot at him, but if he's our best weapon on offense that tells you how bad Bryce has it trying to carry this offense.

That's why he's always open, he's a #3 quality WR?.  Thielen's main limitation is if Bryce can hit him. Only 67 players have more receptions. He's not a #3.  He's honestly a #2, although our #1,  and the fact that Bryce relies on him so much shows how valuable he is.  Thielen happens not to suck because he wasn't drafted and 'developed' here.  If so, he probably would be a #3,  if in the League at all.  Thank you Vikings for showing us what a WR should look like.

I'm at the point in which it's really hard to discern whether it's the scheme or our players that's causing the bigger issue. Either way, it's probably best for both parties to go our separate ways and go full reset on our defense.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
