My mistake; I was.
however, it would take the same to get back Jenkins, plus we couldn't afford him

Jenkins never ever played well when he was here. Why would I want him back?

I would trade Toon for a 4th if someone would give it.

Well if we waste picks like the 2014 draft was, I dont want our FO drafting players....this may be one of the worst drafts in the last 10 years looking at it right now.

I'm telling you, if we had someone next to Lofton who could cover that would be great. Someone opposite of gallette who could play we would have quite the defense. Dont understand how the front office keeps neglecting the LB position year after year in the draft. Best defensive teams have stellar linebackers and lineman.

Not that its even relevant to anything, but the first thing I do in madden is get new Linebackers. Used to be safeties but we took care of that finally...

In a perfect world, Goodell the Impotent & Spec Teams Coordinator McMahon need to be traded to "Unemployment" for our vacated 2nd round picks back.

However, there are some really good ideas for getting someone at ILB, and we should be targeting this ASAP. A bunch of "What if's" though: our record vs other teams' record before the deadline, draft picks vs win-now, Sunseri's/Powell's/SJB's accelerated development before the deadline, etc. Many, many things (Good, Bad & Otherwise) can happen between now and Oct 28th.

Standing with what we have without making ANY moves before the deadline is not a bad idea, either. Trusting in the talent we have is a great option, as long as the coaches get their head out of their butts and get this talent to play as a freakin' team.

Don't really want him back, but it appears this year is proving that its not the personnel thats the problem on defense.

I'd be willing to make the argument that Haralson has outplayed Galette on the opposite side of the line - granted their roles as OLBs are quite different in a 3-4 look. Now, if we are placing him in a more conventional 4-3 end look - once again Jordan has been better at it, although not stellar.

I would agree with that. Our DT's are not getting pressure to free up our 1 trick pony to get to the qb. Bunkely, Hicks and Jordan need to do much better. Our middle is exposed!!

I was actually thinking about something today (trust me, it hurts the first time):

A Jimmy Graham trade? We just paid the man big, but there were some teams I watched today that would put some teams over that hump with Miami, NYG & Houston coming to mind. The obvious teams of OAK, JAX, WAS, and NYJ would be in that mix as well.

Graham is a monster and maybe a future HOF'er as well. Could you just imagine what we would get for him? Or is he too indispensable now and our future? We can definitely win without him, but he is an unbelievable weapon when he is in on the field.

We can't, he'd cost us 16 million against the cap if we traded him.
