What's it going to be then, eh?

obviously some weird algebraic equation right there.
QB: no
LB yes
WR no
DL yes
TE no
S no
Are we a better team today, June 14 2018 than we were a year ago today, June 14,201t.
Consider that our expectations were sky high at this point in 2017
Let's talk:
QB: including back ups
LB
WR
DL
TE
S
I left out CB because I think that's obvious given a year of experience.
It's pretty clear, at least to me, that the competition is set and we'll do some bottom churning and feeding but for the most part we won't be adding major names (c'mon baby you know what I like... Jerry Lee style).
So, hand wringing aside and no worrying like warts, is this a better team today than it was one year ago today?
It all revolves around Tyron Smith’s health primarily followed by WR chemistry with Dak, and then will LVE succeed early with minimal growing pains, and lastly will our safety be at least average or better.
High hopes, lots of potential, we just need reps and live action but all in all I believe we are moving forward. 10-6 is doable....

WR and TE are a mess. Hoping for similar production from the D-line. Most excited about LB. I think we got a good one. He has a lucky opportunity to learn learn from one of the best.Are we a better team today, June 14 2018 than we were a year ago today, June 14,201t.

The biggest offseason moves were losing their #1 WR and TE. That generally doesn't improve a team , or more teams would do it.
So it all comes down to the draft picks.
S: Ha = Heck no. Why people think Heath is a starting quality safety is beyond me. Add him to another unproven player and let's be real.
OL: Yes, Tyron is back, don't know if he's completely healthy, but ******, he's back. I love the O-line, I hate that they are so expensive, but I love the guys.
DB's: I say Yes only because they seemed to play with a ballsy smash-mouth attitude last season that we haven't had around these parts in a while, add that to a damn good DB's coach and while, I'm not super happy with the talent level, I'm OK with the direction of the unit.
Does it? I think it looks like it will be the best we've seen in a while.We are better defensively I think.
Our pass game just looks like it's going to be awful.

You simply cannot say that at this point. The WR's we have could be better, we just don't know.Our pass game?
We have no one as good as Dez on the roster.
Our TE group is the worst in the league on paper.
If they scheme properly then they have a chance but there is no one that can destroy a 1 on 1 matchup.
As good as the Pats are at scheming Gronk still keeps defenses honest because of his ability to win 1 on 1's.
Explosive plays through the air are going to be at a minimum this year imo. It's all on Zeke.

And Dez was not destroying 1 on 1 matchups.
