Offense in Rd 1 could it happen ?

Tavon Austin _ Speed receiver runs a 4.34 40yd. rare excelleration. Reliable hands. Can also return.
Stealing him from Chicago would give me warm fuzzies.

I equate him to Darren Sproles as a WR.

Henderson replacement.

Free agency will always determine the strategy for the draft.I cant see us being a big player in FA this year

It appears Dallas is getting ready to put the franchise tag on Anthony Spencer.

If we go O in the 1st it will be OT.

OL and DL talent is deep in the draft. if we trade down to acquire a late 1st round and 2nd round pick or if we trade down for an early 2nd and 3rd round pick would give us enough pics to draft quality player to add to our depth chart. it's a chance we could take given the fact that FA has not happened yet. of course, given what was said in the beginning, FA will definitely define our draft picks. i just hope sean and mickey make the right calls.

That would be best. I would like to trade out but I don't see it happening.

true, but it's a shot worth taking. I just hope we pull the right strings in FA. there may not be a lot of star power but there is quite a pool of depth in this this years FA class which i hope we jump on asap.

as long as the Rams stay quite in FA and wait til the draft to address the OL as so many think we will be sitting pretty good to calls on draft day.

Impact players are always the battle cry in round 1 BPA will rule

OT - area needs to be addressed
WR - a true #1 for the first time in years?
TE - graham does more duty in wr set so the saints can pay him more money. maybe? kidding. i hope

Wouldn't you say that Colston is a true #1 WR?
