"one heavily used rotational RB, and extensive OL depth"

I don't see it that way.  Please elaborate.

The RB rotation is missing one piece.  The OL has no depth.

At RB, we can’t count on Penny for anything — he’s a lottery ticket — while Gainwell and Scott combined for only 107 rushing attempts and 457 yards last year. Even with Gainwell getting more touches, we definitely need a RB to pick up a significant portion of Sanders’ 259 attempts from last year.

OL we lost Isaac and Dillard in free agency. Even with Jurgens stepping into a starting position we still need 2 quality backups to have the same level of depth. Right now we have Driscoll and that’s basically it.

Wow... even added confetti, a newspaper, and green hair to boot.  Super quick, as well.   I am impressed.

I wanted to make it realistic as possible, so I made sure to imply he slipped on a slick field and fell down.

I got so excited seeing the picture then reasong the first line that I thought they were parting ways.  F Goodell

EDIT: didn't they already extend him a year or two ago and Jerry was making a big fuss about it?

Don't be shocked if Sermon gets a chance to be the recipient of the bulk of those carries.

Johnson or Rapp wouldn't be a big downgrade from CJ if at all. Mills would. I would like to see them bring in Mills as depth/insurance for Blankenship AND Johnson or Rapp.

CJ had the same amount of interceptions last year in ten games then Mills, Rapp and Johnson combined. Mills and Rapp played all 17 games too. 

I'll always respect CJGJ for how he played in the SB. He brought it. Was one of the few on defense who did. I do think there's some character risk there, but I think he has swagger as well, which this defense hasn't had many players with that in recent years.

This is the extension Jones wanted to block. It was just a vote to authorize negotiations.

Howie can do no wrong in some of your eyes

I've been a Howie critic in the past but he's coming off a great year and more importantly we have no idea what was right yet and we don't know what the opening day roster will look like.

And the majority of them you could have picked off. I'm not saying he's a scrub, but he wasn't amazing in coverage, had a ton of missed tackles, and gave up TD's. He's good, not great. And I don't think looking at INT's as the sole measuring stick for a S is prudent.

Is Howie's job the 4th safest for GMs behind Jerry, Belichick & Veach?

Kind of thinking it's now Paris or Skoronski at 10 and Adebawore at 30

Also I wouldn't want Mills at outside CB but saying he couldn't cover a TE seems like it's going too far.  He'd probably be decent at that actually

We can wait on OT for next year, or draft one day 2. We have immediate holes to fill this year and next at DE, DT, S, LB, G/C (depending on Jurgens success at RG), RB, and WR. CB is also a huge need still IMO but we can wait if needed much like OT.

we can but don't think we do.  Adebawore gives us depth at DE and DT

He also had a combined 5 INT's in the three seasons prior when he wasn't playing with two all-pro corners and a historic pass rush. There is also a lot more to playing the Safety position than just getting INT's and while CJ would throw the occasional big hit he was not a very consistent tackler and that is probably putting it mildly. I would prefer CJ to any of the safeties I mentioned but let's not act like he is leaps and bounds better than a Johnson or Rapp and that we just let a prime Brian Dawkins walk out the door.
