Team Needs

[Mercury22]

Just wondering where everyone sees our greatest areas of need.


I'm seeing WR, O-Line, and pass rush. My frustation comes from the fact that I saw these three areas as our biggest needs prior to the draft and I still see them as glaring holes . QB and CB are the only two positions I believe we significantly upgraded in the offseason. Not what I would want if I were in charge of the phins.

Where do you see our biggest, most glaring, holes?

Yeah...I got to thinking about this the other day and I though that Pass Rush really stood out because I personally feel we are really weak outside of Wake, especially in depth. Odrick is not a bad player. I think he'll be alright but unless Vernon really surprises I think our whole front needs a touch of help starting first with the primary rushers though.

I think we'll be looking at WR, RG and Pass Rusher as needs. I guess I'd classify pass rusher as DE but even a better interior player wouldn't be bad. Starks and Soliai are solid but not great. No team is going to win a ton of Play-Off games if Starks and Soliai are the only DTs worth a crap.

We've got too many young players to order our needs though. Misi might do better than expected as might some of the young WRs. Vernon too might be a homerun as much as he might be a failure.

Hard to judge but we have plenty of areas right now.

Let's just hope Tannehill is successful enough to make it all okay!

To me personally im not ready to declare the OLINE a weakness just yet i will let the pre season play out first. Martin had a rough game but he is a rookie and its the preseason i believe in a few weeks he will be a upgrade from columbo and if long is healthy and with pouncy i wouldnt say its a glaring need but yes it could be by early season or possibly be a good one just my 2 cents. For me its WR everyday all day i can not be convinced otherwise till someone proves me wrong on the field. Not buying the legedu hype or that wallace will be anything. I would like to see a good play making linebacker someone who can help the pass rush wich is something you think we need is a better pass rush whicj i agree but i would like it to come from a play making linebacker because i believe odrick,wake and starks to a lesser degree will get sacks. vernon being the wild card.. I may be in the minority here but if tannehill is who e hope and we get a couple WR i think we are close and especially with brady turning 36 we need to be knocking on the door in 2013

I think it's too early to tell right now. The pass rush is weak, but even Dansby said that the D is having to think too much and it is hurting their reaction time. Once the D is confortable with the scheme, we should see an improvement. The WR's are a concern, just because we really don't have a proven playmaker. We may pick up a WR after the rosters are cut, but I really feel that WR will be our first pick next year.

In this order: OG, OG, WR, OLB, S, MLB. Finish building the o-line project.

I hate that the same trouble areas are still our trouble areas after the draft.
