Incomplete because of the bargain signings.

Traded out Elliott for Ronald Moore II. As much as Elliott has fallen of the cliff, Moore's career stalled out part way up the cliff.

Let Schultz go without signing a replacement. Easy to say the young guys will take over, but hard to say that they'll do it successfully.

Traded out McGovern for Edoga. This may be mitigated by the fact that we kept Tyron, but if the plan is to start Tyler at LT, Tyron at RT and Edoga at LG, like Jerry seems to think, I'm not sure we upgraded.

Lost Carlos Watkins and did not replace him. We kept Hankins, but our other interior run stuffers (Bohanna, Gallimore) are suspect.

The re-signings of LVE and Wilson and trades for Cooks and Gilmore were good and could take this team up a notch, but it depends a lot on the positions where we didn't do much (can't get better at a couple of spots and get worse at a couple of spots and expect to improve overall). We've left ourselves open to having to hit on several picks at vulnerable positions or get lucky with bargain FAs, which is hit and miss at best.

We also haven't fixed kicker yet.

Defense still 1 good DT away in my opinion, also need another high-end corner as both Joseph/Wright fails last yr when given the opportunity.

Did you not see Daron Bland play last year?

He's going to be a stud.

Bland is best as a slot corner. One injury away again from last year happening again, along with both Diggs/Gilmore fa's after the season. Going to need a starting corner for 2024.
