First remember we played Indys defense.
1. Lemon looked good enough to cause an open QB camp. The question mark is DC (can he return to his 2004 form). This competition includes Joey.
2. Lemon had similar stats as Joey in a game with good running by Ronnie.
3. Mare looks like he's back in old form. That means we don't have to draft a kicker.
4. The defense is good but we need to get younger on the DL. Let some of the older ones go and promote young ones on the team. If we can get a good player for depth so be it.
5. Chambers looked like he has all year, except for the one catch he fought for. Interesting he never did that for Joey. I'd still trade Chambers and promote Booker, Welker, and Hagan. Draft a WR or sign Furrey from Detroit as a FA.
6. The OL looked pretty good. Draft a LT for backup and promote Alibi to starting. Bring Mc in for TC, but he may not stay.
7. The secondary looked pretty good for the most part. Sign or draft a shut down corner (if possible).
8. We need a back up for Ronnie, other than Rickie.
9. This was one of the better coached games by Saban and staff. Mularkey called a pretty good game, for a change.
With key personnel changes (#1 WR, OLB, CB, LT) we could be competitive next year. Even if we keep Mularkey. I thnk Saban needs to look at the Secondary, TE, WR coaches, and Special Teams coaches.
