Back to the draft, I think Weeden and Silatolu will go earlier than you're forecasting, but I really like your 7th round pick, the big center out of tiny Elon... good call there, I'm hoping the Boys pursue him if he goes undrafted...

Among the free agents, I wouldn't mind seeing Johnnie Lee Higgins in a Cowboys uniform, if only because he went to UTEP, and I did too...
There was speculation that there would be as many as 30 players on the roster who would not return. In any event, Jerry can afford more FA's if he spends wisely. There was great value available, if he was not so blinded by the big names: Cullen Jenkins, Daniel Manning, Brian Waters, etc.

CB Cortland Finnegan TEN
DE Adam Carriker WAS
OLB Robert Mathis IND
WR Laurent Robinson DAL
FB Tony Fiamettta DAL
C Olin Kreutz NO
OG Brandon Keith AZ

Draft:

1st LB Vontaze Burfict / DE Quinton Coples
2nd OLB Bruce Irvin
3rd CB Coryell Judie
4th TE Ladarius Green
5th OG Amini Silatolu
5th FS Harrison Smith (Trade both 6's to move up)
7th C Rodney Austin
