Man I was sittin' at work thinking about this team. With how this team is constructed, what could Licht or whoever is in charge do to fix it?
Looking at the roster, we got like a 100 mil in cap space, but in reality a good chunk of it is gonna be gone due to:
- defensive line (Shaq, JPP, Suh, and ole boy who we got last year from Cleveland are all FAs)
- Jameis and whatever we give him if he comes back, hopefully something in the 25-27 range since I think he's making 21-22 this year
- Godwin will prolly get locked up and he might make some good money next year
and we still need a Safety, possibly a corner, a pass rusher, DT, and a new tackle to replace Dotson
I don't wanna get my hopes up, but this team ain't that far from competing, honestly if the running game gets better to the point to where it's middle of the road, then that will help Jameis if we keep him and bring his turnovers down some, cause he wouldn't have to throw it 40-45 times a game.
The defense is close, they're a pass rusher and a ball-hawking safety away from being an actual real good unit, hopefully Evans can come back cause he was looking like that guy before the injury.
