Dave Canales is one and done.... part 2.

When I used the word "gutted", if I did, it is in the context of a longer term neglect.

Without adding in the money freed up by not spending on Burns, without counting sending DJ Moore off for offense (? made no sense), traded Dante Jackson for offense, all that stuff... just looking at three years of draft picks plus one still to be paid 2nd round for 2025, I am putting the tally below. 

What is very glaring is that in the last three years the highest draft pick used on defense is #70 of 2022 which was traded for a defensive player (CJ Henderson). After that, you have #72 for Wallace, #76 and #80 which went for another defensive player (Gilmore) and a defensive draft pick (DJ Johnson).

THAT IS IT IN 3 YEARS.

#70, #72, #76, #80 Big whoop. Wait and add up everything that went offense draft wise. It is no wonder why the defense is hurting.

2022

#6 Icky

#38 Darnold

#70 CJ Henderson

2023

#9 Bryce Young

#39 Mingo

#61 Bryce Young

#76 S Gilmore

#80 DJ Johnson

2024

#1 Bryce Young

#32 X Legette

#46 Brooks

#72 Wallace

#101 Sanders

2025

#1? 

#33 Bryce Young

Those defensive picks add up to 254 points or something on the trade value chart. May run out of edit time trying to add the totals for those offensive picks, but it will be WELL over 10 times that when all is calculated. 

It wasn’t directed at you. I’m talking about the people acting like it happened over the offseason just to fix the OL. You have been spot on.

Thanks. I wasn't taking it like that I just wanted to clarify and to get that list in play so people can see exactly what the scoop is and why things have regressed so bad over there on that side. 

It is a stark contrast. 

The only way I can even accept it is if this was a two year plan and the defense is coming but I still didn't like it. Too much imbalance.
