I saw "otherwise" over 17 games last year.
We have Terry and a bunch of meh.
If it weren't for Deebo, who we don't have anymore and Terry goes down again we are in trouble. I don't see a high ceiling for Luke or anyone frankly other than our new draft pick.
Yes you can scheme better to make below average to average, but to win? You need a threat, which is why people would have even drafted Love. It is because of the dearth of firepower on offense.

Here's the deal, our GM is not a mastermind, he is pretty good but leaves major gaps that are obvious even to just fans like us. Last off-season we screamed for pass rushers, it was left undone, result? 12-5 to 5-12. He was a year too late. So he spend this year shoring that up at the expense of offense, which is obviously WR, and now oddly center which at one time was a top 3 lineman for us. He's been a year late before and hes gambling big time, and had an unforced error. I'm not saying I'm not happy with most moves, I am. I also buy into you can't fix everything in one off season too, but he's sitting on a huge wad of cash with a bad overall WR core and suspect CB depth with a questionable starter too. So unless he does a trade with someone like Newton, he is gambling that Sanrisil is miraculously better and is a shut down corner from a first year coordinator AND doesn't get hurt (not to mention his broken leg partner) and he is counting on either a late add Aiyuk or a mainly slot rookie to put up 750+ yards on the outside.

So I would argue, we HAVE seen otherwise with our WR depth chart, we know what it means to have bad or below average depth and no legit #2. We lived it last year and the results sucked
