I think someone needs a class in salary cap. To quote the Stones, "Ah, you can't always get a-what you want
No, no baby

You can't always get a-what you want
Tellin' you right now

You can't always get what you want, mmm!
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find, that ya
Get what you need
Oooh, yeah!

I'm tellin' the truth, babe

Ooow-ooh!
Ooow-ooh!
Ooow-ooh!........
(Instrumental & choir to end fade)..."
Insert SB 2008 win here__________...

Yes there is. Even if the owners opt out of the CBA, the first uncapped year will be 2011.

oh my bad.....

(3) This stuff about the TE is starting to dizzy me. Teams can run without a TE on the field. Also, with a good short passing game a ton of pressure can be taken off the running game. I mean, hasn't anyone heard of a three WR set? Also, I'm sure everyone has seen teams send in an OL to play TE at the goal line. Simply put: a great TE would be a nice upgrade, but gosh do you have to have a great player at every position to win a SB? No. Remember David was a starter on a SB team, and no one around here wouldn't like an upgrade at his position.

the team doesnt need an upgrade at the TE position but in our offense a TE could be a valuable asset....i like the idea of moving patten to the slot in the 3 wide sets but the idea of a TE is to go over the middle...they need to be able to take a hit and still retain possession....little patten doesnt quite have the size and strenght to get beaten by a linebacker over the middle play after play....plus a lot of the hype at TE comes from the shockey ordeal...i dont think we need a TE but because it was so widely publicized that he could come to us it suddenly became a need position....agreed u dont need a great player at every position but in our offense a TE would be more than valuable....almost essential if we landed a good one
