The OL is years away, and they're going to have to develop a receiver who can make plays outside the numbers the way Reed makes plays inside them. Defensively, they are going to go with a new philosophy and that can turn a team around really fast. Hard to tell if it will, though.
The big issue though is no first round pick, so they'll be picking from a group of players who other teams passed on. You can find someone good in the second round, but they need someone who is a game changer to win next year, and that player just might not be available at the top of the second round.

LOL! That's not how it works Tripp. Just because a player isn't drafted in the first round doesn't mean he is passed up nor does it mean he can't be a game changer. By that logic, Joe Montana would not have been a game changer and most certainly Tom Brady would definitely not have been a game changer. While not having a first round pick sucks, it's not the end of the world. There is plenty of value in the lower rounds. In fact, that is where Bobby Beathard earned most of his paycheck was those mid to late round draft picks for the Redskins. The team can still bring in quality players in the second round and on, and they still have a chance of picking up a game changer. In fact, I tend to have more faith in 2nd rounders and on than I do first round picks.
