"primed for the playoffs"

This team is built around strong quarterback play.

But it has some serious issues post-draft. Your only real core strength is at quarterback, yet that's often the easiest position to fill during the season. Your weaknesses at both running back and receiver put you in a hole before any games have played. To end up with a team constructed like this, you probably did not get value on some of your picks. The players themselves are not necessarily bad --- you just might have paid more than what they were worth.

To make this team into a serious contender, you are going to need to be extremely active in trades and on the waiver wire. You essentially need to turn over significant parts of this roster. Last year running backs like James Robinson could be had dirt cheap at the draft. Additionally, wide receivers like Justin Jefferson were available after a lot of the drafts. You are likely going to need to land some of this year's top waiver plays, so pay close attention to increased workloads, targets, injuries, etc.

Players we particularly like on this team include Brandin Cooks, Michael Gallup, Curtis Samuel, and Darnell Mooney. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they're typically being drafted.
