Good stuff man thanks. This is exactly as I thought. If they can step it up just a bit we'll be fine. Looks like we need to run the ball more than we have been too, which im ok with.
I agree. I see Wilford showing us why we signed him this year. I see him being the big possesion receiver we need on red zone trips or when we need big 3rd down conversion. If he can, that takes down one need heading into the off season.
I think Ernest W and b London could have good games for us, they are sort of the opposite of Greg C Ginn and D Bess, not shifty nor fast, they can use body positioning to make themselves available to catch the ball. I don't think their YPC will be very good, but they will catch some balls for us.
The loss of him will create some issues. But at the same time it is great for London, Bess and EVEN Wilford to get some playing time. Miami needs to know if they need a big play WR early in the draft. The rest of the season should allow Miami a good look at the WR core as a whole. Miami is in a great place heading into the offseason. The team has made major strides and the weak links are pretty apparent. Needs: * CB * WR * G * FS * ILB * DT There is still a lot to do for the Fins to turn into a powerhouse. But they are just a few players away from being very competitive each game. I hope that Cam comes back next season is full health. He is a huge safety cushion for Pennington on short passing downs. Bess looks like he is a keeper for sure with a LOT of upside. He could end up being our best WR in 3 years. He is not a game breaker just a playmaker.
While I agree that a playmaker at WR would be great I do not believe WR is a position of need for us. As a matter of fact I would say the ONLY position of need on the offensive side of the ball is along the OL. We are going to need a RT to replace Carey (Dont believe he is coming back) and we could use an upgrade at center. Thomas will come back to reclaim the RG spot. OUr OL could look something like this: LT= Long LG= SMiley C= New guy RG= Thomas RT= New guy Satale being the number 1 back for the interior line. The defense is a whole different story IMO, we "have" to upgrade FS, CB, OLB and ILB. I don't think all eight of those guys are going to be replaced BUT the only two guys that I think are safe bets to return are Bell and Porter. Maybe Will Allen. I could very easliy see the Fins replacing three of the LB positions and two of the DB positions. We need someone to replace Hill and Goodman (I wouldn't mind seeing goodman back as a nickle or dime back.) BTW, we need depth at NT as well.
