Chris Jones, Fletcher Cox, or Justin Madubuike for DT help for starters. I'd also love to see Brian Burns or Danielle Hunter at Edge. Kendall Fuller would instantly make the CB room better.
I don't expect the crossed out guys to be available or available to us.
You're right. Nobody on the free agent market is worth signing.
Mischaracterizing his posts!
Your assertion is that there are good players that we can acquire is what I wanted to discuss. If you don't like people discussing your assertions, why are you on a message board.

How many of those non-first round guys are "really good"?
Do you mean ever? Or just this year because of Conner and a lesser RB draft class? Reminder, Conner is close to 30 and right near the standard cliff for RBs.
Fletcher Cox is going to retire so I guess cross out everyone.
Most of those listed are pretty solid guys IMO.
Okay.
I think our three man RB group is VG. If we do pick a RB I hope it's a 5th or later round. Too many defensive needs to use a third round for a RB. JMO.
I suspect the coaching staff thinks there is a no need in the RB room. I could see them going with Connor, Carter, and Demercado as the RBs and if they do decide to draft one it won't be until the 5th round or later especially should a really decent RB fall into the 5th round or later.
Good enough to start for their teams in the divisional round. What an odd comment.
I watch him against the Chiefs. Didn’t show me much.
Hilariously bad argument, because playoff teams never have bad starters at any position.
The better measure is surely getting an 83 PFF grade on a 5-12 team. Thats where the true dogs play.
I know five or six of those guys are pretty blah players, if not outright bad.
It's amazing their teams have advanced to the divisional rounds of the playoffs with such bad players at the second-most important offensive line position.
Conner finished strong but if this team thinks it's set at running back, oof.
Lets see...we have a good starter, an ok backup, and a young guy that showed some promise. What else are you looking for at the position?
lol with all the holes we have & how good the running game looked, you wanna waste our 2nd round pick on a rather mediocre RB class?
No, no. But, we have three third rounders and I think we'd be silly to completely dismiss the concept of drafting say Brooks, Benson, or Corum if they were there. Conner is getting very long in the tooth and probably doesn't have much left. Carter is pretty meh and would be a non-factor if Conner misses time (which he almost always does). Demercado is a JAG.
I still don't think Conner is very good. He's pretty pedestrian. Misses a lot of time. I think we're in the back half of RB rooms right now, depending on what shifts are made around the league.
This is weird. You say tackles have the lowest bust rate but the chart you show clearly indicates center and safety as lower.This has been cited numerous times over the years on actual analysis of drafts.

OT has amongst the lowest bust rates of any position. While you always want to find a star, it's still better to find a decent player than to find a bust. Busting on first round picks can really set a team back as we have all seen.

@Solar7 posted a study a few years back that demonstrated that the best round to take a WR was round two. Round two WRs had a lower bust rate than round one.
