I mean, with the WR/offensive line issues, and the overall age/injury problems, i'm not sure our window is right here, right now.

also, we already had the 4th best D in yards, 6th in scoring, so how much better can those guys really get? we're old and injury prone on D, but there's young depth there... our problems are on offense, and i really didn't see any signs of life out of devin fred or malcolm that makes me think we're going to have 3 1,000 yard receivers this season either.

Where is this supposed young depth? I agree that most of our problems lie on the offensive side of the ball but I'm not ready to write off Devin, Fred or Malcolm yet.

Golston, Montgomery, Landry, Horton, Rogers were all starters. Doughty wasn't offered a contract as an RFA so he's gone. That leaves Alexander, Blades and Moore. That's about as deep as a puddle in the desert.

Golston, Montgomery, Alexander, and Doughty are FAs, if i'm not mistaken. Horton, Landry, and Rogers are starters so they cant be considered "young depth."

From that list, only Moore and Blades are depth players under contract for 2009. We have a horrible lack of talented young depth on our team. Its been far below the league-average for years and could be even worse in 2009, depending on who stays and who goes.
