Defensively, I think I can squint and see a competent league average level defense around this interior core of John Franklin Myers and Jeffrey Simmons.
Everything else, though, I don't know what we're doing.
If I'm a friend of Robert Sala, I'm really sitting back and like, buddy, we've done this before.
You've made this mistake before.
And putting all your trust in an offensive play caller who says that he has all the answers for your quarterback and it ended up torpedoing your tenure at the last spot.
I don't know why, to your point, Brian Daywell gets to walk in and say, hey, I can't run my offense without this receiver.
Well, then you just don't get to have that receiver.
I'm sorry, guys.
Either that or put together a different offense.
It doesn't work like that.
I'm kind of fascinated by it.
I think I want to suspend my disbelief for a moment and say that the combination of he and Devon Achan in the backfield, you add in a Jalen Waddell, there's still a lot of speed.
And that's always been what's kind of set Miami apart for the last half decade.
So I do want to hold some space for the chance that this could work out.
I still think, though, I mean, you look at the entirety of this
depth chart on both sides of the ball.
It's going to be some really ugly football, I would guess.
Emily Willis does not have a lot of tape to suggest that, hey, he can be a ceiling raiser if things go wrong in the run game.
This is a guy who can really help you convert on a lot of third and obvious passing situations.
We just don't have enough for me to feel confident about it.
