Drew and Byrd will restructure giving us plenty of cap space to sign everyone else we need or want too!

Thomas Morestead has a 4.5 cap number which is about 3.5 mil too much for a guy not named Ray Guy...

And two draft picks for a punter (when you only had 4 to start with) is also too much.

Re: New Orleans Saints sign DT Nick Fairley

Love it. Make him play for a contract. Now all we need to do is get Jarran Reed and A'Shawn in the draft along with some oline and DB's. I don't know about the rest of you but I'm happy where we're at right now. # 10 Defense and #2 offense wins Superbowls people!

You win in the trenches. If we draft one of the many DT/DE prospects in this draft our front 7 will be drastically improved (on paper of course).
Some may disagree, but John Jenkins did not play badly last year. Adding Fairley and a DT at #12 will certainly make us stronger up the gut.
