[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 510534, member: 2299"] Where we stand - On defense we've had a decade of poor play and I think it's likely we have another change of DCs. A big part of how smooth this transition is will be based on how much of an immediate benefit Collins can be on that side of the ball. If we keep Woody then that may be a positive sign that we can improve quickly on that side but I get the feeling that we'll be switching DCs and so we'll have to wait and see. Changing defenses isn't quite as big as changing offenses in terms of time to prepare, but I still expect to retain some of the issues we've had for at least the first year or two. - On offense we're almost certainly going away from the TO. How far away will likely determine how bumpy it is. We have some pieces that could help. Between Johnson, Graham, and Yates we should have a QB that will perform well with good development. We have some good RBs to compliment them. Even our WRs I think should be servicable to transition while we hopefully recruit more that fit. That being said I think some people really underestimate how likely it is we will struggle on blocking next year and probably the year after. We were not an overly well coached OL team and that was especially true when it came to pass pro. I expect us to be run heavy for the next year or two regardless of what offense we go simply because I don't expect our pass blocking to be that much better quickly. -Overall, a big reason for this hire was the recruiting aspect and unfortunately that, by nature, is a thing that takes time to produce. I think there is enough to avoid a complete rebuild but there is a good deal of work to be done in all aspects. [/QUOTE]
