I wouldn't mind working something out and getting Matt Birk. He could really help this team.

I don't think we will draft a linebacker. We play a 4-3 and have 3 solid linebackers who can play all 3 downs. Their backups, DiGeorgeo and Ellison have starting experience and can do in a pinch. The d line makes sense because if anything happens to Stroud we are in trouble and we could do better than Williams for backup there. If the bills think they can get a #2 reciever in round 2 the best value at #11 may be o line. They have no depth there. Butler did well last year but I think Otah would be a monster in what we are looking to do this year. Butler could then be a backup at either guard or tackle. Marv's philosopy: Run and stop the run! He may have imposed that on this front office. The only way to impose that theory is to have good lines, offense and defense.

Super Bowls were a new low for sports fans. I really think we were the better team in Super Bowl XXV but we were out coached. Outside of that the Jacksonville playoff game. We lost at home and it was Kelly's last game. We have been looking for his replacement ever since, Butler left soon after the front office was in shambles and even though Phillips took us to the playoffs the team has never been the same.

Any chance they may be trying to work a three way trade with Johnson for Shepard working it's way in there somewhere?
