"There's still a lot of work for us to do, but excited about the weekend, excited about adding some quality players to the team that we think can help us," Caserio added. "Now we have to go out there and actually play good football. That's going to come with time. This is about work. The process hasn't ended. Just because we've had two drafts, like the process hasn't ended. We're going to continue to move forward."
