    If this season ends ugly, I can't wait for the perpetual "sign everyone" threads.

    The first part is correct. Get an pass rushing OLB in here and a safety that is on the same continent as the TE he is covering would be nice.

    I am fairly certain they can take care of DL in the draft faster than OLB. I think OLB needs a few years to develop unless you get a physical freak and they will not be available in the lower part of the 1st round.

    B. Thomas, Jason Taylor, Brodney Pool, Vernon Gholston, Eric Smith, Kellen Clemens, and Mark Brunell are sure to be gone. Richardson might retire, and I wan Jenks to come back so badly, but I don't think he can hold up anymore over a full season. Hopefully he does come back. Maybe if we restructure some contracts like Sanchez's and Pace's, we just might have enough money to sign most of our FA, and go after say LaMarr Woodley, or just sign all of our FA's. And I'm pretty sure Dawan Landry is a FA after this season

    Jenkins contract would have to be restructured if he's coming back. He's due to be a 4.6 million cap hit in 2011. For a player with his injury risk and the money we need to sign everybody back there's no he's on the roster at that number.

    350 lbs NTs do not grow on trees - you need to grow them. It does take more than a few years.

    I think at least one out of the three needs (NT/OLB/Safety) must be filled via free agency. Having that part taken care of frees up the drafting strategy considerably.
