Too late, already dug.
Only 3 are out of the league, but only Chancellor, Saffold and Brown are starters (and the latter 2 can't stay healthy).
I do like the fundamental idea of building on areas of strength, I'm just not sold on the approach.
I think he was referring to the GMs. Regardless, this is just a non-sensical approach. Let's do an exercise in QBs: Derek Carr, Jimmy Garappolo, David Fales, Aaron Murray.
We might have one hell of a QB corps. How many of these guys are going to make the team? How many are going to dress? How many are going to be bona fide NFL players.
QBs not fair? How about RBs? Carlos Hyde, Andre Williams, Lache Seastrunk, Bishop Sankey.
Have we improved the team? Do other teams fear us now?
WRs? Marquise Lee, Donte Moncrief, Robert Herron, TJ Jones. Who plays safety? Tight End?
DBs? Jimmie Ward, Jaylen Watkins, Louchiez Purifoy, Dion Bailey. That's 2 CBs and 2 safeties. Did we actually improve the defensive backfield, figuring who they're knocking off the roster, or taking playing time away from? And yet Tight End, Defensive Line, and Linebacker go unaddressed.
The ONLY way this works is if you liberally call defensive players linebackers, and have large linebackers that play on the front line, medium-size linebackers that play on the second level, and smaller, quicker linebackers that play in the secondary.
Louis Nix, Jeremiah Attaochu, DeMarcus Lawrence, Dion Bailey. Those four "linebackers" would improve a position of strength.
