There's reason for optimism. But there's a lot to work on.
Since we aren't going to fire Harbs and Marty.....
1. James Hurst and Matt Skura CANNOT. BE. STARTERS. ON. THIS. TEAM. If your goal is to get the young buck killed, this is how you do it! Go get a real LG and C. They don't have to be elite, they don't have to be superstars. Just get some real options.
2. Pass rush needs to improve. Suggs is gone, Smith is overrated, and also gone, and Bowser is a classic case of us fitting a square peg into a round hole, and as much as I like Tim Williams he is injury prone. Massive position of need. We need to get at least two pass rushers this season
3. Weddle is old and gone. Please hire him as a coach. The safety market will be bustling, we need a FS so we can allow Jefferson to be in the box all the time.
4. We need to slowly but surely start adding playmakers on the offense... If Lamar is not the answer in five years time it's not a bad idea anyways. Build the foundation, see if we have the brain.
5. Jimmy Smith is likely gone due to high salary. It's going to suck to see him leave but we need to find another CB to replace him.
Lot of work to do.... But it's doable.
