Re: Solutions for 2014

Get rid of Jimmy Graham? My side hurts.

Re: Solutions for 2014

OL has a ton of FA so i expect some upgrades at least depth wise. Mack will get close to million on the open market. expect a bidding war. will he want the pay day or go for less and win? Some really solid ROT/OG are in the draft this year.

legitimate #1 WR is glaring and has been for years. Colston is a Z WR in our offense not a #1

Defense needs bigger and faster OLBs. We are just to small.

DL need quality depth added.

CB need a solid #2 with size and speed. We also need to get a developmental player to bring along.

FS we need hands size and speed.

The draft has almost all the needs this year for us,

Once again to reduce the cap the best means of attack is through the draft.

How is Haralson at 255 and Galette at 258 too small? That's a pretty standard 3-4 OLB size...

2.Resign Soft and Over-rated. He did nothing when it mattered either. Although good He shouldn't expect a max Contract.

3. Release : Will Smith , Jonathan Vilma ( hurts ) , Malcolm Jenkins , Roman Harper , Robert Meachem , Charles Brown , Zach Strief ( I know what I've seen is enough ) , and DLP. ( Holding up blocking isn't good enough in Seattle or San Fran and Now Carolina. Add some Lovie Smith in that , Falcons Pick up Clowney , yeah this need be addressed )

4. 2 Running Backs Need To Go ... Neither named Ingram or Robinson ( Imagine Saying that Last Year ) Sproles can Stay , if he's odd man out we will address this in the draft.

5. With new cap space , Sign Alex Mack Pro Bowl Center Browns. Versatile Safety Ryan Clark Pittsburgh. definitely Resign Bush. Offer Darius Heyward Bey WR . Sign LB Jon Beason to a 1 yr deal.

6. Draft : Kelvin Benjamin FSU (wr) , If Sproles goes , D Thomas RB Oregon 3drb 2nd round.

Perhaps a new OC ... Our hurry up offense caused delay of game penalties ... Why would we give defense time to adjust catch their breath and get settled ? That's like letting Tyson cock back !! Sign Mark Helfriech , if foles can shine in that offense wonder what Brees could do !!!

DHB is doing nothing for the colts no thank you. We need a stud and he is not that.

8 points from NFCCG and you want to blow up the team? I don't think so...

Attrition aside, there will be tweaks on both sides of the ball.

Sean gave Rob some new toys last year, this year it's his turn.

You can't expect the same thing next year by tweaking. Every season is different and there are gonna be burnouts. We have had injuries, and yet to have important players be healthy two years straight. What if Colston or Moore get hurt next year? Can we trust Morgan? Considering the division we are in, even though Carolina won it this year we are still gonna be the team gunned after especially after Carolina's performance at home today. Everyone in the division is out to get us more than anyone else.
