Do you think we can fill all of our needs without any FA's. I keep thinking they're gonna get us an o-lineman in FA and then draft the rest such as a nt/pass rusher, maybe then use the second FA round to find us whatever the draft leaves us. I also keep wondering if we would trade JJ and look for another rb, there have been rumors..

Needs IMO:
RG
CB (because we will move Henry to FS), if not then FS is this need.
QB...back up
NT behind Fergy
OLB...if Carp is moved inside, then this moves up second to RG.


Realistic FA:
Back up QB
Rotation OLB...like Polk from SD, or Peek from Houston
NT...possibly trade???

I think we go into the draft with real needs at RG and CB, or FS depending on Henry position. The FA prices for these positions are outragous.

I think we can fill most of our needs with the draft. If it was my call.. the only FA I would bring in would be a Vet Qb to back up Romo. Everything esle I would go current roster and draft with. I don't think we need to spend huge money on any of the people out there. I would rather see that money spent on extenting current players.

I'm not sure if it would be possible to not get anything in FA.

I would think that a guard is a must, b/c i cannot see us going into the season with our backups as Proctor and either a draft pick or FA rookie, or EJ Whitley if he's healthy. We need a vet there in case Rivera doesn't come back.

I also don't think trading Julius is gonna happen. He showed durability last year, and did go over 1000 yards. And i think we will have him be more aggressive this year instead of whatever he was coached to do after his rookie season.

I am actually thinking that we are finally going to go into a draft without glaring needs, and we can just go BPA. But im crossing my fingers on that.

I see a lot more safties in the draft that are good than cornerbacks plus free agencey isnt to great for us this year unless I'm not seeing something.

If we feel we can take either best CB or FS available then there are several good players that should be there in the second rd...

At CB:
Leon Hall
Darrelle Revis
Aaron Ross
Marcus McCauley
Daymeion Hughes
Chris Houston


At Safety:
LaRon Landry
Reggie Nelson
Michael Griffin
Brandon Meriweather

If we don't care if it's a CB or FS (depends on what Wade wants to do with Henry), then we have some dang good options at #22 or in the 2nd.

I consider this class of CB's and FS pretty deep if you look at both as an option.
