I saw recently in a tweet that Ozzie has made it known that the O-Line is a place he wants to work on this offseason. He also mentioned that he will take a look at Wide Recievers, and he says that we can never have enough pass rushers. Another Ozzie tidbit, he says that while he isnt sure how much longer he will be GM, but he will consider it after he has two or three SB wins.

He who laughs when things go wrong has thought of someone to blame it on.
Scientists tell us that the fastest animal on Earth, with a top speed of 120 feet-per-second, is a cow that has been dropped out of a helicopter.
Entropy just isn't what it used to be.

Its comforting knowing Ozzie plans on staying here longer. Although that may put some pressure on John I love the confidence.

Yeah, thats what I thought too when I saw it. Its great to see that not only does he plan on staying, but he sees potential for a few SB wins.

We need another explosive WR who can gain some separation for Joe and make some plays for him. Also, It wouldnt hurt to find a return specialist in the draft, thats one area we severely lacked in this season.

I was a little excited about Torrey coming into this season, but he wasnt as explosive as I was expecting. I think we need to draft a WR who is fast, as well as good with his hands and good at getting seperation. And a RS would be good too, although I doubt it would happen until the 6th or 7th round. We have bigger needs.

Every offseason Ozzie promises to focus on something, and every year he gets it done. Last year it was working on the run game, he brought in Leech and Ricky, and Ray Rice's YPA went up more than half a yard, he posted a career high in rushing yards and doubled his career rushing TD total. In year's past it's been other things: o-line, pass rushers, cornerbacks, a quarterback, and he's always gotten it done. This year, we know what the focus is on, and I strongly believe we will have a much better offensive line in 2012.

Ozzie, please sign Marcus McNeil (LT). It's all I want for off-season. Thanks.

I thought it was interesting that Ozzie said one emphasis will be to build a team that can remain competitive in the AFC North Division.

Is this a joke? The man accelerates as quickly, if not faster than any player in the league. On his TD against the Pats, Deion Sanders said he hadn't seen turnover(stride frequency) like that all year.
I can't wait for FA and the draft.

If anything..torrey was explosive. Teams started putting their number 1 corner against him and he still accomplished his job which was to stretch the defense. Once flacco and torrey completely get on the same page he is going to be good for 10 tds a year. I thought he was going to return kicks for us because he broke ACC records for kick returning in 2 consecutive years in college
When I was watching hte playoffs and seeing boldin embarrass some dbacks I was thinking man, I wish we had another boldin. Our offense still needs another big physical reciever with above average hands who can get solid seperation.

Ok. By explosive all I meant was that he wasnt as used and as productive as I was expecting. Yes, he played well, just not what I was expecting.

I love this team, we have pass rushers as a need even though we led the AFC in sacks. A great luxury and some awesome aggressivness!

Torrey, not as explosive as expected? Huh? I thought he exceeded everyone's expectations. I know he exceeded mine.
He just might be the fastest player in the league. When he perfects his route running, he'll be unstoppable. It says a lot that teams started putting their #1 corners on him. He might be the first receiver we've had that actually scares opposing defenses.

Glad to see the lack of pass-rushers in recognized. Pagano made it look a lot better, and without him we will drop in sacks unless we get better pass-rushers.
