I agree with your assessment on Terain. He's shown flashes and he also has his limitations. (1) demonstrate he can stay reasonably healthy for a season, (2) duplicate his best efforts on a consistent basis so he dosen't slip into that "hero" with accolades one week to he "sucks" the next.
The team needs a lot before it reaches the point where it's considered a legitimate contender on a consistent basis. Our areas of need are well documented, but just how we'll go about acquiring the personell necessary to fulfill those needs remains a mystery. The draft is not exactly a cure all unless we're talking about multiple ones.
