I can't agree with that.
I what you are saying is that a team will always have some positions that aren't as strong and need to be in a rebuilding process … well, yes, I can go along with that. It broke my heart to see Saffold go, but I understood that we can't pay everybody.
But we are rolling the dice with really long odds and a pretty seriously undeveloped plan. I don't understand why we can't have picked up a couple of journeyman vets who could be counted on to give us some adequacy. Do you really believe that Coleman Shelton is the best available option out there?
I don't believe we had to go into this season with this little backing up unproven talent, and there was no reason at all not to give NB and Allen some run in the PS.
