    Yeah we cant expect our plethora of weapons to do anything as long as our OL isnt performing. I thought the OL played well through the mid part of the season but towards the end of the season just flat out sucked.

    Gordon being hurt really killed us as well. Rivers needs a run game and protection. Thats his game. We need a couple OGs. Feeney doesnt look good. Lamp is a bummer at this point.

      Lamp was supposed to be a mauler. At this point you gotta think he simply hasn't recovered from his injury.

          Durable yes, at 36 don't know about better. I wouldn't mind a one year deal for him instead of keeping Emanual though.

            If we sign him as a backup, it may not be a bad idea. He's the kind of guy who step in right away when needed. Has the right attitude and can carry it over to the young guys. Our starters are not bad, it's the backups who couldn't pull their weight.

              Maybe I should have clarified I wanted him instead of Kyle. KE cannot play in space where TD is very good in space. Devin White is my dream pick.

                Yeah... when you lose 3 starting LB's it's hard to really replace that with backups backup. Hats off to Gus for out scheming and bullying the Ravens, but it seemed like they gave it all they got and then had no idea what to do against NE.

                  Having our 3 top ILBs out was crippling. I think we will definitely add to our LB depth this offseason. It will be interesting to see if we offer Denzel a contract. It will affect our draft strategy. I am not as high on D. White as most. His instincts and lack of height/length limit his effectiveness but amazing speed and brings a thump.

                    Every year its the same thing, we have one #1 pick and 5 positions to use it on. We never seem to catch up on talent.
                    Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

                      Id say injuries hit our lb core pretty seriously that affected our D pretty impactfully. I still think a run stuffing DL is a target but we need to look at our young crew from the last draft too.

                        I think we still have hopes for Khyzir White and I'm not even opposed to Perryman being back. I would definitely sign a solid run stuffing veteran to this group if one's available.
