I agree with Tom on this, but let's be clear. AB is an amazing receiver. He DID pull doubles all year long which allowed JuJu to flourish. Now JuJu will get those doubles and he won't be effective against them. That leaves us with Washington with his suspect hands and focus. The passing game WILL suffer. Particularly if they lose James who isn't spectacular, but is dependable. That leaves us with McDonald who frankly shocked us ALL by staying healthy a season and ******* Grimble. I have no real faith in Grimble. he doesn't even block well and he certainly isn't a serious receiving threat. But he CAN fumble at critical times! I'll give him that.
Defensively, they pick too late to get a true impact player for the defense. They'll get the 3rd or 4th (at best) best linebacker IF they even go that route. If they go corner, the same is true. They are essentially drafting project players at that point who may become decent in two to three years.
On top of ALL THAT, you have cool shades who will continue to **** up the team with his bullshit tendencies. Which players will he give preferential treatment to now? Which will he mislead about their playing time and opportunities? I'm so irritated with Tomlin and how he allowed all this to fester I can hardly find any hope whatsoever for the immediate future of the team.
I just hope Ben continues to increase his HOF resume with the now 'ordinary' team that can no longer boast of being the most talented offensive team in the league.
Oh crap... I didn't even consider the loss of Munch. I can only assume the offensive line play will begin to deteriorate as Cool Shades takes over THAT aspect of the team as well. Cause he's ******* AWESOME at coaching guys up.
