Jennings. He was injured this year, but when he was in there he was fantastic. Even with a bad oline. Look at Murray. He had injuries first 3 years. They fix the oline, and he is a star. I think that Jennings will be solid for us (if he can avoid injury).
Yes, the game is becoming a pass-happy pussy league, but Dallas and Seattle prove you still have to win in the trenches. Even NE's line game is better than advertised.
1) Who are potential Stars/above average players. The 5 are a good list.
2) Who likely would start on most NFL teams at there position. This is where it's' interesting. I think Beatty, Richburg (at center although unproven I think he's going to be good - yes this is subjective), Kennard and Pugh would all start on many teams.
3)I think Ayers would start on a number of teams.
3) You can add Cruz , Schwartz and JPP to the first list both with a big fat asterik * because JPP will be franchised and Cruz and Schwartz are injury prone.
There are 22 Starters. We need to get to the point in this year's offeaseaon where all 3 of these levels Star, Start for many, start for someone improve and add depth in our weakest areas.
We won't compete until we upgrade the talent. The arrow is pointing up though.
Fa's don't count

More beef please.
Put Pugh in the same class? NO....
Kind of a testament to TC, for the 7-9 record.....and also to the value of Beckum jr, because he was the offense.....
And also a testament to the watered down NFL this year....this was not a good team and yet, it was 2 games away from making the playoffs....
