There's something about this team that just feels different!

Starting off with the offseason in hiring Parker, that was a big move. Yes we know that he's inexperienced and he's young, but hey maybe this young cat, can show these old dogs some new tricks!! The way we've assembled this roster, it's apparent that we had a plan, and we executed it to the best of our abilities. Are their still positions that could use depth, of course. The biggest issue last season was our defense, what did we do to fix it? We bring in guys like Thompson, Durant, Locke, Gary, Bullard, Otito. Then we draft Downs, Lawrence, Ballard, Moore, LT. All of these new faces brought in, in a short amount of time. These signings steer differently than our normal signings in the off season (free agents). FA seemed to be well thought out, we missed out on some guys, but at least there was effort put into it!

The offense had a great year, and they cap it off by bringing back Pickens, and resigning Williams. You add a player who's said to have a matured a bit over the offseason in Blue, to go with Flo who had a solid year for us, this offense can go on to be special, and live up to the phrase "GOTI!"

Something just feels different, we can't have made all these moves, only to fall short. With the guys mentioned, to go with those that are already here, I believe we make a push this season that we've been wanting to see. A deep run in the playoffs............. Please give your input

No, starting w/ acquiring Q. Parker is the least of what we did this offseason. Player acquisition was absolutely stellar.

Actually it kinda feels the same (excluding the last two)…..me counting on a home run of a draft class to fix everything.

This one has the potential to be as franchise changing as the 2005 draft was, but for now that’s really all it is….except for Caleb of course, who is a guarantee.

OK, now you've got to be joking!!!

Q/Thompson/Winters/Gary/Locke/Ogboner/Durant/Clark. We completely remade our D. And if just 2-3 of the draft picks work out, wow.

And the guarantees are the FA's we picked up, not the rook.

So bad that if we hadn't gotten him, the players we signed probably wouldn't be on this team, he came in with a plan, so he had to be important in this off season

There has been plenty of seasons with stretches of regular season success.

Oh, okay, then that's good enough. We don't need to strive for excellence in the playoffs when we have stretches of regular season "success" that never materializes into anything meaningful.

Sure but if this draft class is a bust, that group of guys (which greatly improved the depth) isn’t going to be enough.

For me it’s going to be about both, but this draft class can’t bust. In fact it has to be outstanding. Decent chance it could be but it’s going to be largely about both, not one or the other.

Meh. Any decent DC is good w/ enough talent.

You think all the D we drafted will bust? Wow. First time I've heard that.
 
It is differnt; Jr wants a silent partner to buy a minority share of the circus, lol

you see GOOD they felt about that E guy that was here last season and where that got us bud!

W/ no talent. Bud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Classic example of a decent DC w/ no talent. Happens all the time. Sure, blame the DC, that's why we replaced all the players, cuz it was the DC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys must fall for trannies all the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
When 90% of the entire defense is flipped, yeah, it's going to feel different. I feel like they did what they had to do for the most part, though I still would've tried to add a solid starter to the D — at least someone like Nakobe Dean. All that would've taken is 2-3 more million bucks, from what I've heard. But yeah, I'm optimistic that this team can make the playoffs.
