I ill probably ask this question until I am blue in the face. Why didn't they draft Kenneth Dixon?

We got older on defense, have a quarterback coming off a subpar year, have a new CB and MLB who both struggled last year and have unproven running backs all with a rookie head coach. I don't get why anyone is shocked that people are down on us.

That being said, I like the moves we made so far. The upside of the players we brought in are quite high and we have very little committed in salary cap beyond this year if they don't work out.

I am also looking for big things from this coaching staff. It has been a long time since we have had coaches that could put the talent in the best position to succeed and it has been even longer since we have had coaches that could out coach the opponent. Both of those things will change this year

I like this team but I get why the national media doesn't.

Agreed. Mario, wake, KA, Maxwell, Howard all come with question marks and that's about half the D - one reason most here couch their comments with "if's.' And you're right about the new coaches, although I can't imagine a scenario where they're as bad as Philbin's gang. As for the backfield, it's Ajayi and not much . . . at least as far as 'known quantities.' And I admit RB is the one position that is clearly worse than last year . . . so far. I'd like one more big RB and think Gase will bring one in. Who that RB is will affect the entire O.
 
No problem with what he said. We have Jay Ajayi with 49 career carries as our starter. Kenyan Drake a rookie who looks like a 3rd down/change of pace back. Damien Williams who is crap, and Isaiah Pead/Daniel Thomas battling for the 4th spot. Not sure if there are any teams in the NFL who have a weaker RB core.
 
I am ok with what we have done at running back. These backs got crazy money this offseason, and don't forget about Arian Foster, he is still available on the cheap. That is a move I do see us making.
 
Losing LaMarvelous Miller was totally unnecessary and will definitely hurt this team.

The kid from bama has giddy up and go but we'll have to see if he can stay on the field and lower in the hole.

RB is definitely a concern IMO.

Our RB Corp (top 2 at least)has the usual "potential" going for it. I'm excited to see what Ajayi can do in a larger role but yeah, not like the media is going to gamble their reps on getting all optimistic about our backfield.

Miller is not worth 5 million a year. Sorry
