With the signing of colombo, im pretty satisfied in our free agent signings besides we need another LB... how bout you guys... you happy with our signings and do you think we need another player and who??
I am very happy with the moves we have made so far in bringing in Davis and Johnson as well as re-signing our guys, particularly Gurode and Columbo. Our O-Line appears to be solidified and we have no glaring needs anywhere on the team which allows us to select the best available talent in the draft without targeting any positions.
The one area I am hoping we go after early is WR because Glenn & Owens are getting up there in age and WRs generally take time to develop. If we take one now then we won't be scrambling when one or both of them leave. That said, I wouldn't pass up a significantly better player at another position simply to take a WR in round-1. If one of the top WRs falls to us at #22 then take him, if not then draft for best value.
THUMPER's Day-1 Drafting Axioms:
No reaches
No project players
Draft solid men, not problem children
Always take an OL on Day-1
Take guys that can play, not workout warriors
Listen to your coaches & scouts, not your "feelings"
Stay in Round-1
That's it for now.
