Re: Poll
36.1 is "nearly twice as many" as 22.9? 36 is "nearly" 46? I don't think that is a very accurate conclusion from the survey.
You don't have to be "pretty dam patient" to not be concerned over the status of the roster in mid to late March. All you have to be is realistic. Let's see what happens before TC and how the young players and rookies contribute before we condemn TT.
I'm not sure the safety position is the weakness many of you think it is. There might be more than we think behind what we blame Manual for. TT might feel very good about Underwood, Culver, Bigby and/or Peprah, thinking one will step into a bigger role next year.
It's not outrageous to think the draft will supply a starter or frequent player at one or two positions, maybe even more.
We really don't know what deals TT might be working on. Maybe there is nothing, but if there is, he certainly wouldn't mention it. There may be some decent players available this summer. Almost unbelievably, some teams have already pushed their increased caps to the breaking point and may have to release a player when the rookie pools are assigned.
By mid-October we may understand what has happened in March a lot better. Or....we might be heating the tar, gathering feathers and selecting a suitable pole!
March has made me curious, but certainly has not made me angry or disappointed.
