Sorry, but the offense has gotten the lion's share of resources recently. They will simply have to make do, especially when we will only have Kyler Murray at QB next season. You go heavy defense and pray the D keeps the team in the game. We looked at this offense in the offseason as one that would control the ball and bail out the D. Despite much better offensive personnel, it has been the opposite. Go defense, or go home, Monti.
This 100%. Maybe add a “fast” wr to remove one more excuse for Kyler.
Imagine this defense if we had Crosby, Garrett or Parsons.

Seems the most likely scenario, but there’s money to do both. They have to add speed at WR. They must add at least one productive guard.

I understand your point, but if you look at the 2025 FA market...there isn't a ton to spend money on. This is one of the things about FA. Sometimes what it offers is not your primary needs. Same with the draft.

There is money to do both, but in what world would we expect Monti to actually spend that much money? He's either conservative to a fault or handcuffed by Dollar Bill's boy. I know which I favor.

So I'm reading we should have spent more last offseason when there were better fits?

Nah, better to waste money on middling talent like Jones/Nichols/SMB, and keep the 7 year plan in place.
