Ya sure its been done, but what the heck.
we've seen what a team with no real weaknesses can do (BC) to a team with very few (Sask)
First and foremost:
-
HC, OC, DC, ST coach and as many bloody specialty coaches as possible. [WR, QB, LB, DB, DLine, Oline(although coach sal was good) kicking, video etc]
-
Middle Linebacker. (say what you will.. but we either need someone to step up OR come in)
-
QB - Again, either someone new or someone stepping up, we need a healthy QB this year.
-
DBs and depth - Gordon, Cody, Young, (hopefully Goss) are a start... Shaw had good games and bad ones, safety is a need, so is a fourth starting DB is Goss doesn't come back. The guys other than the aforementioned make for solid experienced depth... but we need a guy to make them depth guys rather than starters.
-
WR/SB - we need a true starting receiver to be complimented by DJ Flick. Between Flick and Ralph we've got decent #2 and #3 guys... but no #1. If Peterson was still with the team (and continued to turn it around i'd say we had a solid mix of #2,#3,#3. we'd still need a real #1. A tucker, geroy or stegall. (I hear Copeland is a FA.)
We also need depth now. Do it up Marcel. -
Oline - A Tackle and depth. Woodard, Hudson, Hage, Smith/Felice makes a decent start. But we need another Tackle. Smith didn't do too bad at the end of '05 at tackle, maybe he's an option. Either way, competion at camp is needed to even come close to regaining any point of attack respect.
-
Dline - Canadian depth is good... and it could be okay. IF Cheatwood's knee injury doesn't keep him off the chart.. Collier was great, Josue was good late in the games, could be okay for us.
-
Flemming was good as a punter, boreham rocked on kickoffs.... get one of them to learn how to kick for threes and we're set.
and thats all i can think of.
