Beadles sucking isn't something I'm going to give Dave a pass on. 

Me either.  He needs to step up soon or that's a big swing and miss. 


 

Your points on the ZBS scheme are well made and well taken. But for me, when it comes to team building, I think offensive line is one of the most important facets...

I'm certainly not content with how the line has been addressed and I'm not sold on the ZBS - but I'm intrigued by the potential of Linder, Pasztor, Joeckel and perhaps even Bowanko as long term pieces. There's a chance that all they need do is replace the LG if he doesn't start to earn his paycheck. Yes - it's just a "chance" at this point - but I want to see it play out. 

 

BTW - I was outspoken through the offseason about Brewster NOT being the answer at center and was shocked they put so many eggs in that basket. I'd have gone after a center earlier in the draft. I kept saying Bodine was a mid to late round steal, but probably not a ZBS fit. (He looks pretty good in Cincy as their starting center - round 4 pick)
