While the bolded is true, their problems lie not only with losing players this off-season, but with the state of their current roster even coming into the off-season.
As I've said, they've invested a lot in their O-Line, and it's still hot garbage.
Their D is aging.
Ben is 1 hit away from ending his career and Bruce Gradkowski is being heralded as a terrific signing by them because their back-ups before him were just awful.
Awful? Last year, Charlie Batch was awful vs. the Browns. But, other than that, Leftwich and Batch have been terrific backups for Ben. This is the NFL, and no backup SHOULD win a game against another team's starters, unless they have a terrific defense behind them (Steelers, Texans, 49ers, etc.).
