Gurley, Goff, Austin, Quinn...
Sure, we can add other players to this list, but I don't think anyone would argue these guys are considered top players on our roster and we did not see elite play from them in 2016.
Gurley is just one season removed from being among "the top RB's" in the league.
Goff, drafted #1 overall, just finished his rookie season.
Austin has shown flashes of brilliance, albeit far too infrequent, in an offense that rarely showed flashes of anything.
Quinn just turned 27, after 2 injury plagued seasons, remains in his prime and just 2 seasons removed from top player status in the whole league.
Point being... we sucked last year. But, our best players didn't contribute much. That's a whole lot of team-performance upside sitting there.
