[QUOTE="BoltNut, post: 399959, member: 5596"] With the management we have, TO would never be brought in. It was kicked around on the local message board and it was the consensus of even the fans that it would never happen. A J Smith is not the kind of guy to bring in a player that could end up being any kind of cancer in a locker room that is already ailing. The four points you bring up are very accurate, at least in my own opinion. McNeil has problems with big, physical pass rushers. He is pretty good at times, but struggles to keep the better rushers off of the QB. I believe that Clary, also, has issues on the right side. He got a big contract recently and I'm still wondering why he was so highly valued. Gates has that foot problem and he is obviously not the threat he once was. The jury is still out as far as whether or not he can return to 100%. Even at 90%, he needs to be double teamed, but it looks like he is playing at a much lower level than even that. Malcolm Floyd is like the invisible man at times. He makes one or two "highlight reel" type catches and then disappears for the rest of the day. He's also a bit fragile. Vincent Jackson is a pretty darn good receiver, but there has to be another real deep threat kind of guy opposite him. We have some "holes" to fill, and some shoring up to do this off-season. I could go on and on here, but I think you can see the issues plainly. The national media has gotten involved in our dilemma and the "talking heads" all have an opinion as to what the problem is.
