[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1035567, member: 6578"] I'll say this much Gute at least on paper and on what we've seen in many senses has built/constructed one of the most depth oriented teams (especially on offense) in a while where I there is SO much to be positive about: QB - has his starter, an experienced back up but then added a rookie to the mix that some had as a top 100 prospect.... RB - Bonafide starter replaces Jones, you bring back an experienced (recharged it seems) past starter for you in Dillon...add a high level rookie and you still have your #3 from last year's end as well in house. TE - Two studs, an ascending Sims and to boot a guy in Tyler Davis with many starts under his belt coming back from injury - Gute though brings in a BIG TE from Arizona state that I see as a perfect PS stache project (dude can block and did that primarily but has the athleticism to slide to slot which he did 1/3 of his snaps in college). WR - Arguably we have 6 deep guys I trust (Watons/Doubs/Reed/Wicks/Melton/Heath)...and that excludes Toure who many forget has looked really good at times plus Dubose who we spent a draft pick on. OL - Four of our main five starters back, a part time starter type in Rhyan, drafted a high level guy in Morgan who can play out and in, a top 175 pick in Monk who has showcased immense interior ability, a big body checker in Glover picked up and then the UDFA steal of all some would argue in Jennings who I wouldn't be shocked earns playing time either...oh and we picked up Andre Dillard CHEAP who if he even gets close to his athletic profile and the prospect many saw coming out and pre-injury watch out for a sneak surprise starter. I don't recall a year I felt this good about the direction of the offensive side of the ball...but a lot of the defense has the potential to be loaded too: Off ball LBs - I still think a veteran pick up could be nice but Quay and McDuffie are still here and Gute loads up with Cooper and Hopper plus Goforth as well was added. Don't forget Eric Wilson who seems to be coming into his own...albeit late for a guy now in 7+ seasons. DL/DEs - this is a DEEP full group which Gute has been feeding constantly in the draft for years.... CB - Jaire seems rejuvenated, Stokes if healthy (seems he is) is playing for a contract somewhere, Valentine is for sure going to have the game slow down more, Rochell an experienced highly athletic guy and Ballentine both have been proven roster spot holders....now add in Kalen King to the mix and don't forget the returner Nixon that is serviceable in the slot if needed. S - this spot is the thinnest with proven guys but it arguably may have the single most highest #1 guy though in McKinney. Johnson Jr. comes back and will have every chance to hold it....throw in Bullard (who I think may play a ton of slot, Evan Williams and Oladapo the chance of this position shaping into one not to worry about is for sure there. Not too mention the crazy fast Zayne Anderson is still in house as well is Benny Sapp hoping to cling to a role. [/QUOTE]
