I think so, ya. If you keep Biadasz, you're able to use that 3rd to add a RB or strengthen the DL, and you have a proven pro bowler that knows how to make the right line calls. You keep Fowler and Armstrong, DE isn't the problem it has been this season, and you strengthen the interior. Maybe that 2nd spent on Kneeland could've been a WR. You keep Pollard and the offense isn't so one-dimensional. I was fine with letting him go, but nothing was done to replace him, because there were so many other needs elsewhere.
Instead, we went with a big contract for Dak, and without a great team around him, he fell flat, and then got hurt. People didn't seem to understand that we let a bunch of contributors walk in the offseason. What we're seeing right now, I called it back in May, and it doesn't get much better moving forward unless a bunch of guys step up. This was all avoidable, yet here we sit, staring down the abyss of mediocrity.
