Drafting? What do we need?

SapperSaint · 01-07-2007, 07:18 AM

With some of the drafting threads already coming up I was wondering what do we need? I think the offense is fine. Maybe pick up a QB to have in reserve and a Strong CB. JMO. What do you think?

anything on the defensive side of the ball and TE

secondary.

The D-line and linebackers just need to gel and improve. No need to overhaul personnel. But we need additional assistance with the speed and dexterity to cover the pass-happy offensive trends lately.

big pass rushing DT........leader at MLB, and draft tall speedy DB

I think it's hard to identify what they need until we see who they lose/decide to part ways with in free agency and who they pick up in free agency. Hopefully, they will fill all their needs in free agency, leaving them the luxury of drafting BPA instead of for need

Good one Saintfan.

Who do we have that will be a free agent?

It's obvious we're going need to address our secondary this offseason whether it's through free agency or the draft. I can see us using a 2nd or 3rd round pick on a corner. I don't see a big difference in the corners this year after Hall and the Fresno guy. If a run stuffing tackles is available late in the first, I'd go DT. If that player isn't there, I think we'll go either linebacker or wide receiver. Our second on a corner and third on a tightend.

Two words in Free Agency: Asante Samual

In the draft in order of importance: DT, CB, LB, SS, TE, QB

We need a solid MLB that can play now in the 1st and we need a shut-down CB in the second and in the third we get a D-lineman sullivan size type but can actually go three downs and is like a Sapp speed prototype. We're one player from being a top 5 defense next year if and if we keep Charles Grant and everyone on our d except minor changes and yes my love child Bullocks and his buddy Harper back bananas! They're like a good role-playing game together like fire and wind they work oh so well together.
