Yes, Simmons is a beast. But how about Jack Conklin? Kevin Dodd? Austin Johnson? All drafted in rounds 1-2 in 2016. Or Corey Davis? Adoree Jackson? Taywan Taylor? Jonnu Smith? Jayon Brown? 2017 rounds 1-5. What contributions did we get yesterday from Rashaan Evans or Dane Cruikshank, both drafted in 2018 - just four seasons ago? How did Isaiah Wilson look on the field yesterday? Or Darrynton Evans? Larrell Muchison?
The depth issues that we're seeing this season are the consequence of either whiffing on so many draft picks or not signing them to second contracts. We are developing young players and then watching go be stars on opposing teams, or drafting scrubs who are no longer in the league, all while paying our mediocre QB $100 million dollars. Jon Robinson has been serviceable at best.
