Jason Jones, Ed Reed

that' not true. they were older, yes. but decline is a big overstatement. Every one of the players I listed helped propel their teams into the superbowl - exception being Tony G who only made it to the NFC championship.

 

I love the Charles Woodson talk, or the Ed reed talk, but I've been advocating signing Woodson because I saw his quickness in his play last year, and most importantly, to mentor and teach my little honey badger that I'm going to draft..What Woodson does on the field, I certainly can see the badger doing, versatility.

 

Why? Neither are long term answers. Woodson would make perfect sense if Ireland wants to get young at the position b/c Charles would make an outstanding stop gap, affording a rookie FS some time to ease in just as Rashad Jones did. That's an ideal scenario IMO b/c it allows you to get better immediately and in the future.

 

What positions would you consider at 12 Boomer?

 

but I thought you liked Xavier Rhodes?

 

There's more than one of us?

 

I think we can backload every contract for the next 10 years and make a run for SB this year. Championship!

 

speaking of backload, my coffee's kicking in.

 

Then Free All The Sign-Agents!!!!

Whatever that means.

 

I am wary of Goldson because you always overpay for dudes who just played in a Superbowl.

 

Did this linebacker play in Georgia, and are his initials either A.O. or J.J.?

 

So if I know you well enough that's Lane Johnson, Tavon Austin, Cornellius Carradine, Xavier Rhodes, and who's the linebacker? Jarvis Jones?

 

We should. But there's only one guy worth taking that high.

 

Would you rather have had Percy Harvin, at his new salary, than one of these players at 12? I'm curious.

I think just the first round pick would have been sufficient, since our 1st is much higher than Seattle's.

 

Or Alec Ogletree.

 

Personally, I think it'd be better to have Mike Wallace & Tavon Austin than Percy Harvin alone.

 

You wouldn't consider TE? Rather one TE.

 

that's right, Simon does love him some Ogletree.

 

I would.

 

That's still not enough weapons. Look around the league, these great offenses are stacked. Hartline and Bess are nowhere near good enough to get me to pass on teaming Wallace up with the best skill position player in the draft. Not to mention Bess's long term future with the team is completely up in the air, and there's a good chance Hartline will only be here for a couple years

 

Having Boom fully involved in a thread = ****ing awesome thread.

 

until he leaves w/o even saying goodbye. Just makes you feel dirty and used.

 

would you rather either use a 1st on Ogletree or sign Jones and dump Burnett?

 

That doesn't make me feel any better BTW.

 

I would love Wallace, Patterson, Hartline in the slot after next year.

 

Do that and find a way to grab Carridine. Our DL would be sick.

Id also like to see some depth added at LB. We dodged a bullet last year with Dansby and Burnett staying healthy all year. Spitler and Trusnik are ST guys only IMO. Kaddu? I dunno. Seems to me we have no one to step in and for KD and KB without a major drop off. A little insurance couldn't hurt.
