For me, this was Monti's biggest miss.

We can debate whether or not keeping Allen was actually possible.

We can debate trading back from Will Anderson and getting Paris.

We can debate a number of other draft picks.

What is not debatable for me is having a glaring need at EDGE, multiple FA options, more than enough cap space, and ignoring it. If you gave me one question that Monti had to answer honestly, that would probably be it.
No question this was an inexcusable blunder.

If that’s the case it’s still a huge mistake. You can’t rely on an unproven 2nd year player. Who already had an injury history no less.
agreed, i wonder if he also relied heavily on darius Robinson as well.

You can’t say that because free agency happens before the draft he didn’t know he was gonna have Darius Robinson to possibly count on… Plus he’s not an OLB/edge

next year the clear expectations for JG and the team are to make the playoffs

Monti will be doing his coach and roster a serious disservice if his approach to improving pressure on the QB is via the draft only, and/or, counting on BJ Ojulari and/or a full year of Darius Robinson

he HAS to get a credible veteran pass rusher that can be expected to contribute from week 1. and i dont mean resigning Barron Browning (which i think he should)
