Good Draft? Isn't that an oxymoron?

As someone said, Ike Taylor I agree, he's not elite but he has LEADERSHIP.

If you don't have someone the players can relate to help them, its all for nawt. Young people just do not have the years of wisdom. We can get younger players in the draft while getting a proven leader veteran.

Re: Big time names in 2015 Free Agency

ok not a huge splash but cap friendly maybe.

NT Dan Williams Cards - just might work if Shu does not kill the entire market

starter/solid backup? 2 to 3 mill might get em
OLB/DE, Brian Orakpo Redskins - franchised to IR to reasonable 1 yr deal
ILB Mason Foster Buccaneers - lost on the depth chart with upside
ILB Justin Durant Cowboys - IR to replaced? cap causality in dallas

Im not really worried about the cap. Every year its the same thing and every year Loomis manages to work things out.

Re: Big time names in 2015 Free Agency

The problem with rolling the dice with older players, is that the NFL is a young man's game. While there is the occasional hit like Sharper, that is usually 1 in 15 chance or worse of getting that hit.

The better option is to hope the scouts and coaches can communicate to the personel department and find those players who may not have done well in previous stops but are good scheme fits.
