Sure, the offense has put the defense at a disadvantage since then, but defense-led teams ALWAYS have short windows.

Not only that, didn't most the board expect Bouye to be let go? Especially if they were going to keep Calais and franchise Yan? There was really no other option cap-wise.

The draft was always going to be nearly all defense. And, Tre Herndon was not bad as 2nd CB who was starting for 1st season.

What? Who are you talking about? Our rookies, Ramsey, Yan, Jack? Calais, Bouye played good the following year. There were only like 2 players on the defensive side of the ball the regressed bad but we saw there weknesses in the 2017. Barry Church, maybe T.Gip or Malik Jackson, Poz was slowing down down a little, but you build  on Everyone else that you have, free agency and draft to shore up weak position, not let everyone go and try to justify. The front office made the most mistakes and have not been accountable for [BLEEP]. 

I understand a short window but the whole D should not be gutted by the 3rd year, that is the front office making a lot of mistakes and they are still here [BLEEP] up the team

And Tre Herndon sucks, I don't know why people keep acting like we have one of the cb positions locked down with him. He was getting abused in live play, not analytics. Please don't try to see he was anywhere near the level of Bouye

My issue now is, if we are blowing up the team, blow up the team coaches and all....we need a complete haul, get Caldwell and Marrone the [BLEEP] outta here asap. 

Also don't take this personal, I'm venting because I feel like with no experience as a gm, alot of our fans could have done a better job.. this is crazy. We might really have a 30 for 30 on us
