We have several players who would fall or will hopefully develop into the second and third tier level starters on a contending caliber team. There are several contenders you could put Linder, Norwell, Hamilton, and Griffin on and they'd find a way on the field in most cases but they wouldn't be difference makers.

I am not sure we have any players you would consider a real core player on a contending team. Allen and Lawrence are probably the two with that kind of potential, maybe Little/Campbell/Cisco if they reach their 90th percentile outcomes.

We essentially need to add half a dozen guys who would be the best player on this team, and then another half a dozen players that would be in the same tier as the best players on our team right now. If we add ~12 players like that over the next couple of years we can probably start to think about competing for real, but one of those has to be Trevor of course.
