I went back and watched all of our games last year to a better idea of what we need to do this offseason.
1. Clemons had a great year IMO. He showed up every game with solid play we should pair him and Jones together for the next 5 years. Give em both solid extensions.
2. Daniel Thomas runs well and with power. I think he wins the job this year and puts up very good numbers. 1200 yds and 12 tds.
3. Tannehill found the mismatches when they were there. We had about ten all season maybe.
4. Im going to miss the size of our departed linebackers. They came to the line, didnt avoid contact, and were pretty solid tacklers. They took some plays off here and there but they were pretty solid in my opinion. Underrated at least.
5. O. Vernon flashed in a few games and I think the experence he gained will allo whim to develop into an 8 sacks pass rusher.
6. Mike Wallace had a good season last year despite the numbers beng down. I was shocked at the amount of plays that he was not the primary receiver. It looked like his role was reduced to get him cheaper in the ofseason. I know that is conspiracy theorist takl, but I cant explain how he became the second and thrid option so many times.
7. I like the Keler signing but Fasano had some big catches for us as well so a little improvement there and I think we are fine.
8. The Oline needs quite a few pieces IMO. That leads us up to the draft.
The draft has only a couple capable guards and the top 2 are pretty stellar. WE need Tackle, Guard, red zone receiving threat and CB. Guard is the only one we will get an average player at if we pass in the first round. So I believe our strategy should be to trade down a few picks and take Cooper. In the seconhttp://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2013/3/25/4144880/joseph-fauria-nfl-draft-scouting-reportd round take a tackle and a CB, and the third take a CB and a S. The UCLA tight end had 12 tds last year and is a huge target.
