Was just looking at the schedule and its brutal. Still have several holes that need to be filled. The draft will hopefully help but we will still have glaring needs. I'm sure they will bring in some cheap veterans as we get closer to the draft. I'm thinking a 7-9 record will be acceptable as long as this years draft is a success. I believe we are two yrs away from being able to compete for a playoff spot. As long as these past two draft classes pan out. I just hope Drews play doesn't nosedive in the meantime

i mean if we have trouble with injuries on the defense again I think a another 7-9 finish is very much in reach.

i don't give a shite who we play.

Let's wait until after free agency and the draft before this.

Probably similar season to last year, though.

like 8-8, maybe 9-7 if we hit on a bunch of draft picks who can give some contributions early

At this point I'll just be happy with the playoffs.

We had a good run.

We don't know how to draft so I would say the same as this year
