A botched roster build sometimes looks like a botched play. We’ve all seen them, when the quarterback takes the snap and turns to hand the ball off, but there’s no one there. The running back either ran the wrong way or the QB turned the wrong direction. Either way, bad things ensue.
NFL history is littered with cautionary tales of bright, young quarterbacks on teams that offer no help when the QB needs it most. David Carr anyone?
Thankfully, Nick Caserio has done a decent, if not great, job of ensuring Mills has someone on the other end when he needs to get rid of the pigskin.
