What do our South rivals need to do to make you worry?

Winning in the NFL isnt easy, no matter who you play.

Atlanta has big Defensive needs.  Their OL is still up in the air considering they focused on that last offseason then the injury bug smacked them

 

But if they grabbed Amari Cooper to put beside Julio and Gurley fell to them in the 2nd.  It'd make me a little more nervous than playing them now.

They need to stop sucking.

The Falcons would worry me the most in '15. If the could get someone in their they can put together any sort of defense then they could be a decent team.

The Saints are on their way to the bottom thanks to their cap situation. With Brees, Graham and the rest they will remain dangerous in individual games but they do not concern me for the season as a whole.

The Bucs have some pieces and after losing a lot of close games despite awful QBs they may be closer than it appears. If they pick Winston over Mariota and he stays out of trouble (which I think he will) then I think they will be our biggest threat for a few years starting in '16, cannot see them as division threats next year though

Cooper, Julio, and Roddy together? Matty must have done something right in a previous life if that happens

[CamMoon]

Tampa will be competitive next year. Most of their loses were close games. They need to hit on QB. Winston is at least solid but MM scares me. He could be on par with Cam or Kaepernick without an arm. The Saints and Falcons are done for a few years.

I wouldn't have been a fan of the Falcons getting Rex or Fox.

I could be wrong but I don't think MM is going to be a legit NFL QB.

I can see him being a bust. He is more of a runner. That Oregon offense made Joey Harrington look like a star. Tampa will have a tough decision to make. Hopefully they get it wrong.

I wouldn't sleep on Kevin White either. The fact is is that they have the opportunity to draft a stud opposite Julio, and Gurley may just fall to them. That would be somewhat disconcerting, perhaps, but they have some issues on their lines. Protecting Matty Ice Melt and generating a legit pass rush may be the best option for them to seriously compete long term though. That being said, the first scenario would be more of a luxury that may lead them to be imbalanced for a couple of years.

They had a Ton of injuries on the OL after adding some new guys including what most had the top OL in last years draft.  So id say still give it another year to see how their OL goes.  IF they got Cooper (who most say is the best prospect since Julio and AJ Green) on the other side, with a healthy Gurley.  That offense would have me Really nervous.  But thy still need some work on that D.

Well Tampa is going to get Jameis Winston

[Goondal]

Agreed, both would have been a perfect fit. Can always count on them to screw it up though

[Goondal]

I think so and that worries me, maybe not next year but I think the two of us will have some good battles for a few years
