In looking at our current roster, it is interesting to note that our offense would seem to grade out position by position ahead of our defense.
QB - A+ Obviously we have the NFL MVP, a very astute backup, and a potential young stud who may have one of the best arms in the NFL per Phil Simms.
RB - B+ BJGE and Woodhead were both very good last year. Will they be able to keep it up again? 2 completely different rookies will be interesting to watch to see if either can be effective in the NFL. Will Faulk be able to make the roster again? Will we keep a 5th back?
WR - B- Welker is obviously one of the top inside recievers in the NFL. He seems to have a clone in Edelman. Branch was effective at times last year but will injuries and age catch up with him again this season as in Seattle? Can Tate or Price step forward? Would sure be nice to see them bring in another established veteran (ala Chad Johnson, Plaxico) to give us another threat.
TE - A- Incredible potential with the 2 young TE's. Gronk is a combo threat while Hernandez has the potential to be another Dallas Clark. Can Crumpler be effective one more year? Will Lee Smith make the team and replace Crumpler?
OL - B+ If Solder is able to play to his 1st round status then I heard the other night on the NFL network that we will have the best pair of young bookend tackles in the NFL in Solder and Vollmer. Mankins is signed for the year and is 1 of the best in the business. Age seems to be starting to creep up on Koppen. The other guard spot is a major issue as is Kaczur and our depth. Will Cannon be able to become effective once healthy? Will they resign Light for insurance? What about depth?
Overall this seems to be a very capable offense capable of winning a Super Bowl if everyone stays healthy. Would sure be nice to see another threat at WR though. Thoughts?
