Quote:This regime has failed on many levels, and one is just assuming young players will develop and get better.

 

Perfect example was Mike Brewster - where they didn't provide him with adequate competition during training camp and pre-season.  They literally GAVE him the starting job until he fell on his face multiple times.  Luckily Bowanko looks better, but even he doesn't strike me as a long term solution yet.  I'm alright with him going into next year - but if a better Center prospect falls low enough (say, round 5-6) that also has ability to play guard, we need to get him.

 

The same applies to RT this year.  I said last year that Pasztor played decently, but no better than Cam Bradfield did at LT.  We need an upgrade there for sure.

You're saying this regime has failed because the team has holes?  First off, this team is in the 2nd year of a massive rebuild, and secondly, EVERY team has holes.  It's not possible to do what you are suggesting.  You do the best you can to fill the gaps and provide the most adequate depth but that takes time, and even super bowl winning teams have holes.
