I'm not too upset over losing Murray. I wish we didn't but I think we'll survive. Everything ram through the O-line last year and they're all coming back. I'm just wondering how or if we're going to improve on defense. We had very little and now we have less. Even thePlan C options like Sheard might be gone soon. Unless we're relying on Keith Rivers and the 27th pick.

Who is the Eagles most dangerous offensive weapon?

Riley Cooper?

And we are losing all our depth on an already bad defence.

Seattle is better.

Still a very shaky defense and o line. Gore and Johnson are old. And Luck is good, but overrated.

Oh i agree. But they are better. They were 1 game away last year from and made it farther then then us, after we killed them weeks before.

You are wrong though, Luck is not overrated, hes a stud!

Knighton. Wilfork. Cromartie. Hardy. Skuta.

We'll see.

Colts have made a lot of noise but haven't improved a lot.

They lost Wayne and added Johnson...a slight upgrade. Added Gore and Cole...older, but talented players that are improvements at positions of needed. Overall, I think they're better than before.

A little better, not a lot better.

Seattle

The addition of Jimmy Graham will make the Saint's offense better -- even with the loss of Unger.

I kinda wonder if their defense is poised to take a step backwords, however, you have to still consider them the front-runners in the NFC going into next season.

Packers

With the resigning of Cobb and Bulaga the Packers return all 11 starters on offense for their league leading scoring offense.

Of those 11 players on offense, only one of them is over 30 years old in Aaron Rodgers.

They have a number of ascending offensive players including Lacy, Davonte Adams, and Corey Lindsey (center).

They fielded their best offense line in over a decade last season and it may have been the best pass blocking line the NFL. Their offensive line is young -- the oldest of them is 28.

Their defense will need to replace Tramon Williams (likely gone) but they also have an ascending player in Ha Ha Clinton Dix.

The Packers defense will continue to be the weak platoon, however, it improved significantly in the 2nd half of the season and played well enough to win against about Dallas and Seattle.

I think the Packers are more of a threat than Seattle.

All too often the teams that "win" free agency at this time of year don't win jack in the post-season.

Seattle got a huge weapon in Jimmy Graham.

Yes but they lost two of their starting OL and do not have a 1st rounder. They didn't have a good OL in the first place. Graham will definitely help them but if Wilson doesn't have time then it will be wasted weapon.

They gave up Foles (1.6 million against the cap) for Bradford (13 million against the cap).

The Jags have improved in about 4 positions - if they can improve in 4 more then they will be measureably better next season.
