We have 3 holes to fill in the draft and free agency:
1. Defensive Line-"Big Money" has played very soft this year, and we obviously put very little pressure on opposing qb's. I would like to see us go after Adalius Thomas in FA and draft at least 2 DLinemen.
2. Fix the Offensive Line. They never seemed to be insinc the enitre season. This was our worst line for running the ball in at least the last 10-12 years. Lepsis returning next year should help, but they need to find a way to work better as a team, and return to their old ways. I miss Alex Gibbs.
3. Find a much, much, much better punter and kickoff man. Opposing teams at Mile High should start EVERY possession at the 20. Ernster was consistently out kicked and out punted by opposing teams every game.
The good news is all 3 of these holes can be fixed in the offseason. We have a very bright future with all the young players and Shanny hopefully for years to come.
