I thought for the longest time and still do that you build your team up front first. The biggest and best OL you can assemble. Same with the D side of things and then you start filing in the other spots. When you lines fall apart you got nothing.

You can have Bree's and speedsters but when you need to run the ball or need to control the clock or get inches at the goal line for a TD you're not going to be able to pull that off.

We were totally exposed.

Agree completely. I'm a Jim Finks disciple on building a team. The closer to the line of scrimmage, the more important the player is. Always take the stud big man over the stud little man.

Obviously this can be accomplished in many ways since interior big men can be acquired in the middle rounds, but the point remains...

Solidify OL and DL first. Everything else is easier.

Forsett is 5'8, listed at 195 but probably 185-190 and runs a 4.6 40. Not Adrian Peterson by any means although we made him look that way.
