<![CDATA[Are we done improving?]]> We added through trades and a couple of friends agents and have been silent since then.  We don't have a draft pick until the second pick.  So now I am bored and anxious for something to happen.

I don't see an impact player by the time we pick.  So the team is what I see us entering preseason.

I meant an impact changer.  I know we will fill holes, add depth and add special teams with the draft picks.   Starter caliber with our later picks. 

Everybody wants that, but it rarely happens.  Dorsey is as good at finding thoe players as anyone.  Just because you and I don't see impact players left doesn't mean Dorsey doesn't.  I am sure he has 4-5 targeted players per round.  We will just have to see if we can get any of them.

2 / 49
3 / 80
4 / 119
5 / 144
5 / 155
5 / 170
6 / 189
7 / 221

OBJ is far, far more talented than anyone who would be available at the 17, so think of him as our first-round pick.

No reason for pessimism..

I think Dorsey will add, through trade, another impact player & I think that will be either a LB or safety. Just one old man's hunch.

Keep in mind too that Dorsey, Highsmith, & Wolf have quite a track record of finding playmakers in the mid to late rounds of the draft & UDFAs.

We got Chubb, Callaway and Avery after the first round last year ... Dorsey will find us players.

And if we need a part at the last minute ... a linebacker, a safety, an injury replacement on the offensive line ... there are always some quality vets floating around when camp breaks

Expectations are gonna be at an all time high

I see nothing more until the draft, then maybe a FA that becomes available after the draft if that player fits a need...... I think we've pretty much saddled the 'acquire an impact player' horse. 

How boring.  Lol. Fuck you Dorsey for plugging round holes with round plugs and not square ones.

Time to use true drafting and trading skills this year.
