IT'S ALIVE!!! IT'S ALIVE!!! sorry I had to do it

I'm not saying put an all out rookie OL but you can play at least two rookies in your starting line-up Dan Buenning (4th round) started at LG for the Buccaners and they went to the playoffs Rob Pettiti (6th round) started at RT for Dallas with the difficult task of protecting the Drewster. Logan Mankins (1st round) started for the Patsies. It can be done and be succesful, someday you have to focus on the most important problem this team have had for over a decade and fix it and the only way to do it iMO is via draft.

You know what? I don't have a problem with people complaining, to each is own I guess. But how do you know this is not getting any better? Because we didn't sign every FA in the market? Have a little faith in the new regime.

We will build the offensive line through the draft as every other team in the league does. We'll draft them, we will play them this year and hopefully we can build a foundation for years to come. They targeted Reggie Wells because he's young and improving (Cardinals said they'll match any offer we make) Neal is 30 years old (in two years he's the next Villarial) Fabini is 31 years old (why would the Jets realease a LT?, can he still play?, doubtful) Runyan is 33 years old (John Fina all over again but on the right side) You see the trend, you sign these guys for a year of two for them to help you get over the top. They would help us get over a 6-10 record. I'd rather play a guy in his second year if not a rookie, no more patchwork OL for me I want a core of young players to build on. If you sign guys like Fabini or Runyan, sign them for depth not to start.

Except for 2001 that is correct. GW's first year was a nightmare with guys like Ben Unatoa and Dan O'Leary.

Good move.

Awesome. So we're not doomed

I don't see SanFran drafting D'Brick unless they move Jennings to RT.

Runyan is 33 and Mawae is 35. So I'd say no to them Maybe sign Reyes or Neal and Mike Pearson (he's a LT but I sign him to play RT) Other than that it's a good plan

I prefer Tutan Reyes he's one year younger than Neal.

And that is the bottome line. Having said that you see a GM and coach looking build a strong foundation with young players. I think they feel Moulds could be part of the plan but not at his current salary. It's paycut or you're out, a restructure isn't part of the solution, not anymore.

Sorry Dean. "I would try to find a trading partner and see if someone is in need of a QB, if I can't find one I wouldn't draft a QB at 8." It's that better?

I'd trade down.

Trully a dream come true.

Ditto.

He plays with intensity and provides good depth. Plus he's a good ST player.- I like the move.

Try it, it.. just... may work

It doesn't compute in the brain of mine, but to be honest with you I didn't put the effort to understand it.

Well I'd look for DE help, I know people don't like Kiawanuka because of his poor showing in the Senior Bowl, but the guy has tremendous upside and talent, Tamba Hali is another option. Motor AND talent, I really like him. Maybe we would have to trade down to get these two to feel that you didn'tt reach for them, but if you think they're going to be good players down the road why not draft them (remember Levy Jones)

Even if we adress both lines via FA I'd still go after big bodies early and often in the draft. Build a solid foundation and you'll have a competitive team year after year.

I don't see Rocky Bernard on that list... He'd be a better pickup than Pickett and Lewis albeit more expensive. Pickett I could live with but I was reading a Rams board and they absolutely hate Lewis. Underachiever/bust were the words to describe him.

I wonder if Leonhard is a good fit for the Cover 2? Anyone know/guess?

Why not? Ngata was chastized and viewed as a fat bastard because he didn´t carry two OL on his shoulder on his way to the QB against Oklahoma.

LOL

Yep, amazing Can´t hardly wait.
