The problem with this team is in the trenches on both sides. Payton has been terrible at drafting. He hit the home run in 2006 and the then after that nothing. He was able to ride that 06 class for a while but that is no longer the case. We keep signing lemons who cash in and then go missing. That trash of a defense is a prime example. We have brought in so many people to help fix that defense I can't even count. From Jason David to Jairus Byrd.

We need a good defensive coordinator that can do something for more than 1 year.

Take a look at who we have on the teams from the draft picks/UDFA:
2007: Meachem, PT (UDFA)
2008: no one
2009: Morstead
2010: PRob, JG, Bush (UDFA), Galette (UDFA)
2011: Jordan, Ingram
2012: Hicks, Toon, White, Jones
2013: Vaccaro, Armstead, Jenkins, Stills, Hill, Lelito, Khiry Robinson

Our picks the last few years have been good, but the players are young as hell and their ceiling isn't as high as you'd hope for. White is never going to be a shut down corner, Toon is never going to be a #1 receiver at this rate, Hicks is becoming a disappointment, and who knows what Jenkins is. Stills is hampered by his quad still I bet as well.

We got issues and the lack of OL/DL play is gonna get us killed.
