Why the hell did they restructure Vaitai contract twice? He’s a fukking RG on a 50 million dollar deal with a bad back, while we’re running out nothing on defense. If Jameson Williams isn’t a legitimate star, I don’t see Holmes recovering. It’s like they’re chasing after their tail
Their saving grace/shot is going to be free agency and the draft next year. If they can't fix the defense and secure a QB it's over for one of them at least (Campbell). I'm a firm Brad Holmes supporter despite some mistakes. His biggest mistake might be his longest play, which is him believing in Goff. I'd expect Goff to get back to being good when his best pieces return soon but that probably doesn't save him. There's literally no point in not picking a QB if we end up with a top 3 pick.
In my eyes...
DL: replace Levi, add another DE
LB: two starters alongside Rodrigo
Secondary: starting CB alongside Okudah, possibly another safety while Tracy Walker heals
WR: add a WR4 or WR5 simply to ensure Tom Kennedy isn't playing games for us
TE: let Hock walk, add a young vet in FA
OL: depth
RB: 2nd or 3rd round pick. Swift is unreliable
That's like ten players, not even counting QB. Between FA and the draft it's certainly doable.
