Steelers 27 Skins 12 post game thread

It is frustrating to watch but it just comes down to we don't have enough talent on the defense to win games. This coulda won this game shoulda won that game stuff is not right. The reason we don't win those games is cause we aren't good enough. On defense there are very few players on the team this season that I would want starting next year. (If left blank I think those players should be replaced if possible). I'm assuming Carriker and Orakpo come back healthy. And yes, I didnt include Fletcher, he has slowed down a TON this season and is not the same player.

Wilson, pass in my point of view, would love an all new secondary. I do like Cofield I just don't think he is a true nose tackle that you need if you want to have a DOMINANT 3-4 defense which is the ultimate goal. If we were a 4-3 team he would have been included in my list easily. I still would want him on the team if it was economically feasible, but more of a rotational player along the whole d-line.

i mostly agree. cofield is def not a real 3-4 nose, we need supreme tub in there. but i think wilson makes one hell of a nickel corner. if i'm not mistaken, he's being paid like a nickel corner

I think you are being kinda dramatic with our roster list only because we have limited cap space and no 1st round draft. I don't think we can afford to look for a replacement for Fletcher until next off season. We really need to focus on the secondary, we literally need 3 new DBs. I don't mind keeping Wilson as #2 CB next year. As for NT, I agree that we need to look for one but not on expense of spending lot of money on a FA or drafting one with our 2nd and 3rd round picks. Plus we need to find a suitor for RT, unless Shanny is satisfied with Polumbus. To sum up, I believe we need to make the secondary and RT as top 2 necessities to fix in the off season. If we want to shore up on some other positions, we will have to do it through low round picks and bargain FA players.

Yeah, obviously we can't make all those moves in 1 off season with limited picks, it was more of a dream scenario/express how I feel about the current talent. No way we can replace that many people so quickly. I wouldn't mind Wilson as a nickel back, I was just listing the starters I'd like to replace, meaning the top 2. Not necessarily getting completely rid of everyone if the price was right.
