Tate, Bryant, and Clemons were all key contributors. I'm confident replacing them is very doable, but until we do there is no reason to celebrate.
Well I guess in some peoples world they would rather have Tate, Bryant and Clemons and then lose Thomas and Sherman next year.
I am utterly amazed at the responses on this board. We cant keep everyone
On defense Thomas, Kam, Sherman and probably Bennet are the key players
Offense I would say we are good as long as we keep Wilson, Harvin, Baldwin and Okung. Lynch will probably not be on this team much longer and I cant wait to see the nuclear explosion on this board when that happens
As far as Tate goes. I dont think we will miss his production at all if Harvin is healthy. Harvin completely changes how defenses play us and you saw how his presence in the superbowl opened everything up and Wilson absolutely shredded the Broncos D.
Breno was average. Our entire Oline was out half the season anyway so I can see how it could possibly be any worse than it was.
On defense the entire secondary is still intact minus thrumond probably. We lost Red and Clemons but they were aging players who we needed to move away from to be honest. Our pash rush will still be fine with Avril, Bennet and Irvin.
