I am starting to wonder was last year just more than writing it off to injuries. 1 Pace have miss 23 games in two season. I think it is fair to say this is more than one bad luck season. I have to wonder is he near or at the end. He has been grate but at year 13 the injuries may be signs of old age. I can't give him a better he has not played but 9 games in two season.(same) 2 Incognito he has got tallent but it's negated by his temper, he has to get a hold of that (Same). 3 Bulger he look like he regress to me and it look like it was more than pass protection problem.( slighty better). I agree on the rest of your list on the O side but if we got problems at Lt I have to wonder how much better can we expect Bulger to be.
Brown (worse) got to be on the field to get better and I can not see the glass half full for him until he gets this drugs thing behind him.
Hill (worse) Only one thing worse in having a undersize corner in a division with large WR's being injured.
Hall (worse) He did not deliver, I think he will on the second unit after the draft.
Chavous (worse) he is on a serious lost of ability. We got to fix that in the draft.

It was do we think our starters at each position sill be better then what we had last year. The answer in almost all those cases is yes because we had backups playing most of the games at those positions last year. Pace returning should be an upgrade at LT over the fill ins we put there including Barron. I agree Pace his self is probably worse then a few years ago. But that was not what this post was about at all its about do we think we will be better at these positions going in. Bulger, Incognito, Hill, and Hall healthy will be better at their positions then the other fill ins we had at their positions. Chavous I see as the same I don't see him as good but I can't see him playing worse. Brown missed several games last year due to suspension and until its confirmed he will miss more games due to suspension then we have to consider it as better because he will not miss games. At this time he is not suspended if something comes out then I would have to have Wade, Bartell, or another CB slide into the starting role and I would have to reclassify at that time as the slightly worse to worse. Because we already had fill ins for him for a part of the season.
