Some of the things you outlined here I had in mind with the Room for disappointment thread... but i can't really agree you're painting a realistic picture of the roster. LB corp a mess? Fletcher is a beast, period. His age is a worry and the fact that he got a bit nicked up last year but this is one of the most durable players in the league. Rocky struggled but remember it was his recovery year from the '07 knee blowout, and leading up to that incident in '07 he was off the hook. There is no reason to write him off. Clearly we want to add a legit playmaker, probably at WLB because Rocky is likely to switch this year. But ultimately we've got a serviceable starter in Blades and a pretty fascinating opportunity in Taylor (even though I'd prefer a monster like Rey at LB so JT can stay at RDE).
I don't understand you're perspective on DE. We've got AC and JT locked down and the team can easily sign Daniels or Evans for a little money (probably the only other thing will do in FA i would guess).
The o-line can be vastly improved w/ a single decision if the FO takes a stud at 13. Not only does this give us a monster at RT it allows Jansen to compete elsewhere or at least be the primary back-up and don't pretend like he won't have a giant chip on his shoulder if/when he gets an opportunity (like last year).
