Ramblings:
The CB's are clearly upgraded over what they had last year...it's not even close. Throwing out King, I'd take Tramon, Jaire and J.Jackson over Randall, House and Rollins. The problem in the secondary this year has been the safeties.
I think the defense is getting some pressure on the QB due to better coverage. Maybe Wilkerson would have helped the pass rush, but right now I think the defense has improved from last year while the offense has regressed.
They need to find out if Burks can play, and who stays at OLB. Beyond that, they will have do some shopping in FA and draft for OLB and S.
I think letting Monty go and getting even a conditional pick that will likely be nothing is better than outright cutting him in terms of 'optics'. I wish him luck, but I'm not sorry he's gone. It opens up the RB rotation a bit more, and he was a gadget guy that can be replaced.
If they really need someone in that RB/WR role I'd use Cobb...he can't outrun a CB anymore but would be a tough cover for a LB.
The rookie WRs will get better as the season goes on and I think make the year 2 leap. I'm not surprised this year has had rough moments, but I did not expect them from Ty.
