[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 876427"] On a related subject, there does seem to be some ****** roster building going on. If you value run defense, a dubious proposition with one-offs aside given other things worthy of consideration, you'd be surely disappointed that there was no upgrade on the DL, either in FA or the draft. Kirsey looks more like a calculated injury risk with cap savings over Martinez than any clear upgrade. Pettine said in mid-season that stopping the run is not the priority, there isn't much reason to think that should change, and not much reason to think it should. Clearly going one-off the deep end is to be avoided, an evident overreaction to Garoppolo throwing over the top in the first meeting. Conversely, we get a power back in the 2nd. round, his lead blocker in the 3rd., and bunch of interior OLs in the late rounds. So, the path to winning is a robust run game on offense, but on defense the opposite? When you get past the granular and into philosophy of winning, there is a clear disconnect. [/QUOTE]
