Kickers are a dime a dozen, but with almost $3M/yr tied up in Bailey they are stuck with him. With all the special teams debacles this year, and consistent back kicker performance, I think the special teams coach/s need to be replaced.
As for QB, you will not see Wentz here in MN, unless they take Cousins and his crappy contract in return, can’t pay both those salaries. And as far as the developing a QB statement, name me 5 good QB’s that were developed? It doesn’t happen, you either have the talent or you do not. And apparently that measuring stick is hard to read because lots of teams swing and miss on QB’s, and some get lucky. Every team in the league missed on Brady several rounds before he was drafted by NE, and even they didn’t know what they drafted.
I do say, follow the NE strategy and draft a QB every year regardless of who you have playing, take a chance every year in the 4-6 rounds on a QB, see how they pan out.
Spiellman has done good and bad in his time, but the money spent on Cousins was a huge mistake, paying huge for mediocre talent. And for some reason they just cannot hit on OL or game changing Def. WR’s are like gold though.
