Beware of DeSean Jackson's hugs
Now let's tie it all together...
Since 2010, we have drafted the following starters:
Trent Williams
Ryan Kerrigan
Kirk Cousins
Jordan Reed
Morgan Moses
Spencer Long
Bashaud Breeland
Brandon Sherff
Preston Smith
Matt Jones
Jamison Crowder
Kendall Fuller
Since 2010 we have drafted the following regulars:
Niles Paul
Chris Thompson
Su'a Cravens
Matt Ioannidis
That's twelve starters and four good contributors. The list from 2015 and 2016 still has a reasonable chance to grow. As you can see, the draft is very important. It's nice to know that our GM has three extra picks in the 2017 draft. Don't be surprised if he turns it into twelve or fourteen picks overall.
Not trying to throw cold water on it, but as bad as we were, I would expect to have lots of guys break the lineup and play. I would look at their contributions to the division title as my barometer on how well we drafted. That is, let's win something before patting everyone on the backs.
I do agree the future does look bright and am thrilled that we actually took the fundamental step of playing the young guys. Still dissappointed the first rounder can't contribute and took a roster spot. I don't want another bpa draft pick that can't start.....at any position.

Clearly the Giants have violated the spirit of the personal conduct policy.
They should be hit with a 36M dollar cap penalty.

You guys are lucky I'm busy at work today.
Am I the only one worried about the possibility of Green Bay signing Mack Brown off our PS?
Their starting RB was promoted just today from their own PS, and he sucks.
Their second string RB is a wide receiver.
Mack Brown is probably gone, isn't he?

Josh, we hardly knew ye.
Remembering Scot's reaction when the Achilles news broke:
You haven't joined any rooms.
