[QUOTE="dansz15, post: 250138, member: 1262"] I think that there is a possiblity that TT likes only draft players and not sign free agents, but to build his own team. This squad had too many holes at the start of the year. Think a few years back when they were 13-3, there werent many holes. Nelson who was called an indulgance pick was drafted as best player on board. However, the issues lies in that this season, players got older still (Clift, Tausch) and with the new 3-4 there were holes needed to be filled there as well. I really do think it has to do with not having enough high picks for the way he likes to build teams. The Meredith pick at the time looked great. Not sure what happened there but he was argued to maybe be in the high second round. Long story shortI am not convinced that it is TT's fault. He builds teams through the draft and has relatively had a solid track record minus some duds, but who doesn't? Two years ago there weren't many gleeming issues when it all caved in, and I did not buy this pre season hype. I didn't think it would be like this, but I did think they would need another year of solid draft to begin building an NFC powerhouse. They are a year or so away from being dominant. I am just hoping next year the O Line is the 1st round pick like everyone thought it could of been for a while now. Unless there is nothing on the line drafted, then we can say I am full of it, but until then I am sticking with it. The way TT does things its going to take a while. But I really do think it is almost there. BTW TJ Lang has serious potential IMO, the fact he came out of East Mich did not help his cause but he could easily be a solid starter one day. Plug a few holes on the line, and I really think there could be something special. [/QUOTE]
