One or two key injuries on the OL and we would not have been a contender even with the best secondary in the NFL. Then this season when our DL is not doing well because they don't have enough depth to keep players fresh, you will complain about that too. The reality of it is we had too many positions that could use upgrades and we couldn't fix them all. You point out exactly why we drafted the way we did, because we have young guys in the DB that are unproven and still developing. We may not have a great secondary but obviously TT decided to give the young guys a chance and upgrade in other areas of need. James Jones could turn out to be great, Lee could turn out to be great too. No one knows, but they will get their chance and we will find out. For now we don't have to worry about our OL for the first time in a long time and with the needed upgrades addressed on the DL should help to take some pressure off the secondary.</blockquote>
