Consensus off-season checklist

Re-sign Howard (yep, kinda)
Re-sign Thomas (yep)
Re-sign Rogers (yep)
Re-sign Boo (yep)
Re-sign T-rex (nope, although I think he’s easily replaceable)
Re-sign Folau (yep)

Sign or draft a good back-up RB (yep, yep, Stecker, Smith and probably a late rounder also)
Sign or draft a good 3rd or 4th WR (yep, but debatable because of Crowell’s injury probs)
Sign or draft a run stuffing DL (yep, but debatable, Sully moves to 2-gap, Bryant claims 1-gap)
Sign or draft a good MLB (not yet)
Sign or draft a quality CB (not yet)
Sign or draft a quality OLB (not yet)

Out of 12 things most of us agreed needed to be done, 8 have been done after only two weeks of free agency.
The bad news is that the three we need badly CB/MLB/OLB haven’t been addressed yet and its frustrating the impatient.

If these aren’t addressed before the season starts, then I’ll be right there screaming the clueless line that some of you are already singing.
But I think they will be addressed. Then we’ll discuss if they were addressed properly or not.

ahhh... now this is what should be the debate of the draft. Do you take DJ WIlliams OLB... some will argue we are fine at OLB. 18 DJ WILLIAMS is the best pick at 18 or trade down/up. Is it worth an upgrade at that position... will DJ WIlliams be more of an impact than the OLB we have now. Long run I say yes! I like bringing in Gold, drafting Williams and a CB in the second which we still will be able to get a good CB at that pick in the second.

Let\'s assume that we do all that, who is your starting MLB?

Maybe DJ could move to the inside? Eitherway, if we have our choice in LB\'s, we better go Vilma.

Do you get some sort of kickback from Vilma.com for each time you mention him or what?

Vilma\'s ok, but he\'s no Jeremiah Trotter.
