Although Grigg has been servicable at the very least I agree with your point. They are mid tier type players and not guys who will get them to the next level.
They're the type of players someone trying to stay at the top could use or someone like GWS who has the talent in the squad but just needs to target recruit a position player. Houli, for instance, would be much more useful to GWS than Richmond. Reasonable AFL players who can add depth to the list and play a role from time to time when needed with injuries to the top players in the group. They are not players to build a premiership side around.
As a Tigs supporter I think Houli has been more than serviceable for us. Cops some unfair criticism at times now & again. The others could be put into that category but Maric has been serviceable & our best ruck for 10 years (which Sums up our club). All clubs have these players though & you guys recruited one of our plonkers in Matty White who dropped back to his normal standards this year after a one off good season.
I'd like to see us get Adcock if we can get him in the pre season draft. 4 retirements already we can afford to get one more older player on our list. McBean must play before Griffths every game next year as our third tall forward.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
