but 2021 will be (according to Damone "DOOOG"

Everyone knew 2020 was a rebuilding year just look at the Dline options. 2021 was always the year to be special.

Offensively, besides Mason West the class is really solid. Not a big fan of the two running backs but they can get the job done. Defensively the class is a step down from years past. Covington and Smalls are great pickups, Jackson and Esteen are solid but a step down for the DB’s we have gotten in the past. Smith, Bruener and McDonald are guys where you have to trust the coaches evaluation but to have three projects on one side of the ball in one year is concerning. It’s a solid class but we can do better. This is where Jimmy needs to make the necessary changes so we can step up talent wise. Need to cut the dead weight on the staff and upgrade because we got the money.

@sonics1993 You see the staff picking anyone up for the Feb signing period? Yary?

no

If we can somehow land Yary, a blue chip d-lineman along w/ Tre'shaun Harrison I will change my mind.

FireCohen

no

only good thing about this class is that we took 5 lineman

no

This is a bit of a loaded question. The answer isn't binary, or rather, just because it isn't special doesn't mean it isn't excellent. Troll rating 7/10.

I could see them picking a project player they are high on but at this moment I don’t see them landing any 4/5 stars.

Agree with all of this except I like Sunday and think he will be very good. I probably like Smalls less than you, but that’s nitpicking. He was absolutely a great get and I’m glad to have him. Esteen is really good too.

As always no love for the Redman. He is going to be nails. WR class is excellent. D is a step down any way you slice it.
