Clemson is the only team that can step to Bama and that's only because of Lawrence. Also true. I said before this college football season felt fake or like it didn't happen. This is my first time watching really any significant snaps of college football and it's like man is this 2020-21 season or the 2008-18 with Norte Dame getting beat again. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cutting Saffold in 2022 could free up a lot of cap space and he's had some injury issues this season already. He's also gonna be 33 next season, so he's due to start declining soon. Ben Jones is only a year younger and is a free agent in 2022 anyway. If we're gonna get a replacement for him, we'd probably want to do it this draft and not start a rookie at center. If it's a deep class, a fourth wouldn't be bad, but I haven't looked at the OL class much. But it will definitely be a big problem pretty soon, and waiting until the last second to solve those problems isn't a winning strategy. OL play don’t really decline like skill position players it’s possible Saffold can still be playing at a high level at 35-37, I would like to see us draft Ben Jones successor though, but if I had my pick I would go Edge & DL 1st 2 rounds ILB 3rd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that Edge and DL are for sure the biggest needs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-Hope- 2,259 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 always interesting to think about the fact that ryan day was almost our first OC under vrabel. not a complaint by any means given the offense we have now, just kind of intriguing to think about what our scheme might have looked like under him and whether, if he had been a one-and-done like lafleur, it would’ve impacted what art runs now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

twotonebluenation 129 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think we need to answer alot of questions on defense. I believe the piece that would have the quickest and best fix to our pass rush problems is to put another d lineman with talent next to Simmons. I think it would have a ripple effect on the whole d. I don't really keep up with college football but is this d line class deep? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ya I keep saying outside of Simmons and Landry we don’t have a real quality starter next to them Jones is a good depth guy and Crawford is a good depth guy Alot of depth guys no one that true starter 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The dropoff at the interior and at edge is insane. We probably can’t address both in the draft. Finding guys that contribute much at those positions, as rookies, is difficult. They need a vet in at least one of those spots. Probably a priority free agent spot this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 2,299 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 So, watching Aaron Brewer these last few games, I feel a lot better about our interior depth. Still think we could use an earlyish pick (3rd or 4th) on IOL, but it definitely looks less critical than the front 7 and WR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
