I do apologize for hijacking the thread. I am new to the site. I did sign up during the draft was recently given permission to post.

Overall
My biggest hole is Center I hope Reiter or Long can make a move at Center similar to what Moses did at RT. Maybe even an udfa can upgrade the position.

Next hole is DT. Maybe ionnodis (spelling) can improve here maybe even Gallete and the Corner play can also buy another half second or full second to get some added pressure.

All other spots on the roster I am comfortable with and even if the season started today I would be OK with Lichty at center and hope the d-line can remain healthy.

Qb not 100% sold on Kirk but I do like the progress. I think any qb in the league would want Garcon,Jackson, Reed, Crowder, and now Doctson to be able to throw the ball to. Behind a very good O-line.

RB- I like Marshall better the Jones. Jones has to hold on to the ball. I like both just love the speed Marshall has.

WR- I think is the strongest deepest position on the team. Last year we skipped a beat with d- Jack out Doctson allows one of the starters to go down and us not skip a beat. I think the tandem moving forward is Doctson and Jackson. My personal favorite of the group is Garcon.

TE- Reed and Davis will be extremely hard to cover at the same time I only think Davis has 1 good year left in him hopefully he has more with being somewhat 2nd string maybe more of a insurance deal if reed can't stay healthy. Be interesting who all makes the team. I look to see Reed Davis Carrier to make the team depending on recovery time. Not a big fan of Niles paul.

O-line I think we have one of the best in football at least top 5. Really hope we can upgrade the center position love both tackles love scherff (possibly move him to lg) could you imagine running behind scherff and Williams with Jones I bet we would get 3rd n 1 every time.

Kicker and punter. I am finally happy with Hopkins and Way. Think way had somewhat of an off year last year maybe not statistically but seemed like when we needed a good punt he would shank or out kick the coverage I know not all of this is on him he just didn't appear as consistent as he was the year before. Hopkins finally booms the kicks out of the end zones and has good fg%. I only see improvement for Hopkins.

D-line. This is question mark for me. Imo there is a hole in the middle DT-NT we have a lot of variables that could go either way to make this position good or bad Corner,olb, and defensive end. I am not sure who is going to play where. I do believe there will be various players play both end and tackle. So I do think we will need other areas of the defense to help make this a good strong unit.

Olb- Between these guys and the corners the are the best this defense has. Can't wait to see Kerrigan and Gallete play opposite each other. Could be 30 sack combo with just them 2.
Preston Smith will be able to spell each one if they get tired I know Kerrigan likes to play every snap but maybe couple plays off here and there will make him more effective in the 4th for some big sacks to seal some games up. Gallete is the? Because of the surgery. Feel confident in Smith if Gallete doesn't seem to get back to old form.

Ilb- this unit is also could use an upgrade Compton and foster did play well down the stretch getting Riley back from an injury may help a little possibly the lb we drafted last year that go injured in training camp will make a move to get in the lineup. Marcus.

DBs- this position could have gone from weakest to strongest in 2015 to 2016. Breeland was our #1 cb to the #2 he did well as the #1 seems to lack 60 minutes focus he tends to give up plays here and there but definitely held his own vs #1 wide outs if we play the same zone defense that leaves corners on one side of the field I expect a lot of balls to come his way. Norman is a player that does make the whole team better. Allows extra time for the rush to get there. Allows breeland to excel on the other side of the ball. Also yet to be determined is he played on one of the better defenses in football last year so just maybe he will be able to instill some practice/study habits upon Fuller and breeland and we can have some very good corners for a long time. Safety is also a ? Hall and cravens is who I see starting at safety Ihenacho was playing well before he got hurt will be interesting to see who does start of those 3.

Offense is playoff caliber borderline championship caliber depending on cousins. The pass catchers are there seems like they are endless. Jackson,Garcon,Reed, Crowder, Doctson,Davis,Marshall?. Offensive line is top 5. Running backs have the potential to be very good with the pass catchers and o-line.

Defense has the potential to be top 10 if they are top 5 I would be extremely suprised.

Special teams should be pretty good. Maybe Crowder becomes full time pr/kr and Doctson starts in the slot. BIG maybe. Crowder seems perfect for the slot. Doctson just sounds to good to sit out a year or play sparingly.
