I am of the opinion and this is what the organization was saying defense was going to be a strength and one of the best in the league. I understand they lost Sieloff but does losing one guy put your team in a position to search for a replacement, that's if your defense is really as good as you say it is?
Yes the fans deserve a winner but just as the fans saw a winner in 10-11 it's been at the expense of the next two years and we still don't know what this team can do. I don't want a decent team at the expense of being bad for the next 2-3 years.
A lot of this.
A team that was supposed to be a top team on the blue line loses one player and rushes out to pick someone up asap looks desperate to cover something up.
It's not about throwing in the towel after 3 games and it's not about a 6th round pick.
It is about a team that says one thing and the loss of a single player 3 games in appears to force their hand in an area that is supposed to be an area of strength for them.
Regardless of how they do this season the young kids are their future but as usual developing young kids has become secondary to this team.
Picks can be recovered at the deadline and other deals as well as players, not necessarily OAs which would have been better in the end.
They spent a 6th and a card on an OA 3 games in to fill a hole in an area they were supposedly strong and deep at when they likely could have picked up an equally talented player in a deal if they decide to sell.
If they decide to stand pat or try to add for a mini run this team will be in trouble asset wise for 2 more years.since they will nothing to add to the young kids down the road if they progress as hoped for.
