Wallace brings the scare the day lights out of the D speed and I doubt they draft his clone Wheaton from Oregon St.

The new "skill" positions on this team from now on are Oline and Dline. The sooner the "front office GM" understands that the sooner we have a chance at restoring year in and year out playoff appearances and chances at super bowls.

QB's make C+ skill position players into A-B grade players when they have an Oline that gives them the opportunity.
Restore the trenches, restore the rings.

I'm in the Oline/Defensive line camp also. For once in our life, can we just build an amazing DLine and OLine? Or at least fix one of those.

Lol.

Some of these people just see the name.

GB can keep Jennings and his old spice.

We have Dez and Witten. Harris is coming along nicely. Beasley has Romo's trust. Give Coales and that Armstrong guy a chance to show something.

All we need to do with Austin is put him in an offseason stretch program, where he does lots of yoga, tai chi, and rolf massage therapy. Also, he needs to restructure his deal to free up some much needed dollars. I feel if he does this, he will be ready to have a very nice 2013 for us.

I don't understand the love for Jennings. He is injury prone as well. Why rid ourselves of one training table player just to have his replacement be another.

Not big on Greg or Miles. If we can keep Miles on the cheap that would be ideal, but I would prefer to see Harris getting more snaps.

Friendly word of advice. Read carefully before letting your fingers near the keyboard.

The Oline is the most important at this point.

I disagree with you to run a 4-3 right you need DL and a lot of it. You need guys that are some bad mo fo's. How are you gonna be championship caliber with just 3 or 4 guys that are worth a darn. You need at least 6 preferably 7 guys. This team doesn't have that. Your going from a scheme that emphasizes one position from another.

Keep Austin and let the younger guys continue to develop and possibly challenge for his spot. If Harris improves as much this offseason, I think he's solidly the #3 and at that point I'd put Austin on notice.

I think he's far too comfortable and seeing him have to sit out the 2nd half one week only to start the next without the slightest bit of hitch in his stride is pretty maddening.

Seeing him sit on the sidelines for whatever reason but be able to make an appearance in a pinch when the guys behind him are actually hurt is even more maddening.

Do we still have A Armstrong? Doesn't he have enough speed and good enough hands to be a deep threat, at least in a supporting role with Dez and Harris?
