Are you wondering why we have little talent on the offensive line? Or why we have no young QB prospects? Or why our plan for WR/TE depth consists of us holding out hope late rounders or UDFA's can do what Miles did? Or why when Murray gets injured we have nothing to replace him with?
Could it possibly be because of this team year after year using the lions share of our draft picks towards defensive players?
Since 2005
9 of 14 early picks (1st and 2nd rounders) have been for defensive guys
10 of 17 mid-round picks (3-5) have been for defensive guys
12 of 21 late round picks (6-7) go to defense.
Our offense was constructed the following way:
QB - UDFA
FB - FA
RB1 - 3rd rounder
RB2 - 1st rounder
WR1 - 1st rounder
WR2 - UDFA
WR3 - 6th rounder
TE1 - 3rd rounder
TE2 - 7th rounder
LT - 1st rounder
LG - FA
C - UDFA
RG - FA
LT - 4th rounder
