Quote:As to the part in bold:


1. Daryl Smith...replaced by Telvin Smith, who has already been named AFC Defensive player of the week once.


2. Pot Roast...replaced by SenDerrick Marks, who was named Pro Bowl alternate last year.


3. Derek Cox...not that replacing him was like replacing Lester Hayes or Darrelle Revis...but take your choice between Colvin and McCray.


4. MJD...was good to great when he was here, but was clearly finished when he was let go. IIRC, had <100 yards total last year, then retired. This year is a very deep RB class.


The one guy you can definitively state we haven't adequately replaced from the group above was Monroe, and Monroe wasn't that good his first couple of years here.

Daryl played outside and middle not sure if Telvin could do that yet but ill give you that.


I do like Marks a lil more then Pot Roast but he was more of the run stopper type DT like Roy Miller.


Cox was expendable but we have CBs on the roster still that havent solidified that spot.


Sadly enough id still take Mojo a few years ago over Gerhart.
