Some of these drafted players that are in the system hopefully start to come through for us next year. The two that I mentioned, Spaight and and a few more. We also have extra picks in this upcoming draft class. I like what SM is doing. Remember, the other way ( gasing up Redskins One, winning the off season) DID NOT work. Remember????
One of the reasons we're short on talent is cause of the RG3 trade. By my count that's 4 highly drafted players that are not here. Those guys should be starters for us, or contriburing. You don't swing and miss like that and don't feel it.
So despite all that we are still in the hunt. I'm happy where we're at, even though it's hard watching this defense. Help is on the way and I expect that will be via the draft, and maybe a free agent or two..

Solid post. Our d will take a big leap next year. The younger guys will have more experience, we'll pick up some low costs depth in FA, and I'm sure the BPA in the draft will magically be 80-90% defensive players (as it should be).
And Breeland will get his swagger back. He's too physically talented and has played well before. Just needs to get his mind right. If we have good Breeland back, that alone would make our defense way better.
I want to make the playoffs this year more so to keep building a streak from last year. Not gonna win the Super Bowl this year.
