Where Do We LEAST Need To Improve?

I think we're good at tackle and guard... I said guard in the poll, thinking of kendall and thomas, but beyond them depth may be an issue moreso at guard than at tackle, when I think about Jansen, Samuels, Wade, Fabini, and Heyer. we need a starting quality corner, as shawn is no "spring" chicken, and smoot and rogers are just solid twos. we need a dynamic wideout, as we've been suffering there for a couple of years. D line has been a soft spot on our D for a while. Griff was a monster his first year, but steadily declined and hasn't had much support. Carter has been great, but daniels is avg.

I was thinking, if Chris Wilson can bulk up a bit, and then he could become the starting DE, we could move Phillip Daniels to DT, like he was on 3rd downs, and he could provide a nice pass rush from there as he did throughout last year, well he provided a better pass rush from DT than he was DE.

Long shot, but I'd love to see Alex Buzbee emerge this year.

crazy I was thinking the same thing last week.

Damn straight, we're starting the Buzbee Bandwagon!

Samuels and Jansen are pretty good. In that sense, we don't need to improve our position at OT. Nonetheless, I think we really need to start adding quality youth to the O-line. Fielding 5 starting O-lineman over the age of 30 in 2008 is a recipe for serious problems in 2009 and beyond.

Moreover, I think we need to upgrade our depth along the O-line. As evidenced by our woes the past few seasons, depth along the O-line is essential.

Just got back from the Wiz game. Arrrgggghhhhhhh.
Anyway, since this thread didn't specify a time frame, for this season, I'll say we LEAST need to improve at tackle. If Jansen is healthy and Heyer is still around, and Samuels turns in another pro bowl year, clearly tackle is the strongest of the listed positions.

"So with that in mind, where can we afford to go with the status quo for another year?"

DT... we have a solid group of guys who are mostly pretty young and will be dominant.

So for 2008 I'll say DT and OT are a tie. Montgomery/Golston/Griffin will be the defensive equivalent of Jansen and Samuels with Heyer filling in. Sorry I missed your specifics. It slightly changes my answer, but not by much. OT and DT are neck and neck IMO. Or at least very close to it.
