[QUOTE="98Redbird, post: 427571, member: 2714"] We all know that TT does not dabble too much in FA, but this year it was glaringly obvious that we are a couple pieces away from being contenders. Namely a pass rusher, competent LB opposite matthews and a competent safety (Although Collins possibly returning may help this). I honestly do not put blame on DC for our defense being this atrocious. The absence of Collins and Jenkins hurt this defense far more than most people realize. ANY QB in this league will look stellar if he has all day to throw. We had a significant lack of pass rush all season. You simply cannot expect the secondary to hold up for 5, 6, 7+ seconds. Just doesn't work that way. The loss of Collins was significant too. Peprah is a backup. Simple as that. The only reason he played well last year was because he had Collins next to him. Defense was out of position most of the season, and that was Collins' job. Peprah just isn't the same player. Not even a shadow to be honest. It's all about personel. There's nothing wrong with Capers' scheme or concept. If he doesn't have the personel, he doesn't have the personel. The guys just couldn't physically accomplish what he was asking them to do. So do we go after a pash rusher? A LB? in FA this year? There are a few big names availible. Do you think TT see's that letting Jenkins walk was a big mistake? And do you think he learns from this? Does he see that we are so close to being dominant right now, but need help in a few areas? We cannot rely on Rodgers and the offense to win games for us. They will have off weeks, and the defense needs to keep us in ball games. Two games we lost this year, the offense struggled. And our defense could not be relied upon. We can't be so one sided in the future. We need balance. This draft I expect to be heavily defense. And I honestly think we add a big defensive name in Free Agency. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
