The Taints are headed for the cellar, where they will likely drown when the levees break. Sorry, for the non PC BS but they have dug there own graves or above ground Crypt if you prefer. Then you have the off season winners Tampa Bay who still needs to cross there fingers V-Jax does not decide to party too hard and drink and drive. Regardless they have to get it done on the field and i think we split the season. The Falcons defense is still not as good as ours could be with a productive draft and people coming back healthy. Also people want to hate on our off season so far and all i see is improvement.

We needed a better fullback than Jerome Felton we went out and got the BEST FB in FA with Tolbert. We need safety competition and we went out and got a RAVEN. Say what you want Nakumura is a likely starter, And we are sitting pretty in the draft. CB, DE, and OLB are deep this year and we can find production at those positions.

I agree, A Linemen either side of the ball in the first would ad confidence to this for me. Possibly a trade down to pick up fletcher cox....moving back a few picks to snag a dt and maybe picking up a 2nd or 3rd in the process. We will see what can be done, I am not sure of trade value after the rg3 trade,.....lol

I am not as optimistic. As much as I hate the Saints*, and trust me I hate them, they will have Brees back and he can pretty much run the offense with that nerdy looking QB coach they have. Payton will be in communication with his staff and Brees for game week prep, you know it and I know it. Atlanta has owned our asses. Tampa is a coin toss. Then we have to face the NFC East and the Chicago Bears.

This. Little two early to claim the division when Atlanta has swept us the pass two years.

Yeah, I pretty much agree with OP. Just wanted to throw in:

As far as the Buccaneers go, and I'm not doing any research here, but I can't remember any team that has ever gone crazy in free agency and then won anything the following season. Free agency almost always seems to be a trap.

I think the offense of this team will be a top 3 offense in the league. Too many weapons. We will score a lot of points. Its up to our defense on how far we go. Its up to our Front office to get the right players in the draft or FA and then its up to the coaches to develop them throughout the season.

Simply, I wouldnt trade our team or our roster for any team in the NFC South.

If the Panthers can't find themselves in the post season this year, that is going to be a huge issue with me. Buccs have a nice team on paper but I don't think they are there yet, the Flacons I never count in and Saints (chuckle).

I'm really not that confident about our team this coming year. Our defense was god awful and we really aren't doing anything to improve it. Sure we get Edwards back, that will make the D line "okay" but it still won't give us any pressure up the middle from our DTs. Then of course we are getting beason back... but not at full strength due to his achilies injury, so i sincerely doubt he will be a huge factor, then there is the big question of Thomas Davis, who plays if he gets hurt because the possibility is likely (as much as I hate admitting that). then there's the problem with our secondary, mainly at FS and CB#2. A good draft might help a bit, but I don't expect our defense to be all that great this year. hopefully I'm wrong, but I just have a bad feeling about this year.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
