should we even expect immediate help from the draft?

[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 905852, member: 6578"] It is VERY TOUGH to improve from a team that has won 13 games back to back and made it to the NFCCG...period. Let alone expect rookies to do that for you. What I'm about to say is NOT a defense or conveying a concept of ignoring CB or iDL or even slot or such heading into the draft - which I feel is precisely why they have done some of the moves they did. BUT, one could easily argue that for 2021, there are only two glaring massive holes GB need answered: Center and a Tackle position. No one is advocating for King to be our CB2 -but signing him does put a small bandaid on a cut that truly needs stitches, bleeding may be stopped but isn't the proper treatment. Same for iDL - by not releasing Lowry and re-signing Lancaster CHEAP, same thing...no one is going to say this is by any means the best was to fix it, but it is like putting bondo on your quarter panel of your truck...it's a fix, and will hide issues, but long term start planning/saving for a new quarter panel if you want to properly fix. While GB, like any team, has a list of things that need improved (either through draft, elevated play from the roster within, or at this point cheap FA signings post draft). Outside of the two MAJOR issues of center and tackle my personal list of positions be nice if the draft helped in the present or into 2022 on: - Getting a better option for CB2 over King either in the present or projected into 2022. - Increase play from Sullivan OR someone else taking over his role. - Sweep/Motion role type WR/RB (could be same player as below) - Pure/True slot type WR (could be same player as above) - Returner - WR future beyond 2021 (the above 3 may also assist in this) - Defensive trench assistance, be nice to make Lowry and Lancaster no longer needed PLEASE. - EDGE/OLB #3 option towards 2022...Gary needs more play time and both Smiths I doubt see 2022... - Depth at ILB at minimum. Summers and Burks will be gone... - RB3 [/QUOTE]
