Free Agency/draft A De/dt

9 posts in this topic

Hey guys, I have noticed we have been discussing the draft and free agency regarding Linebackers, Corners, Tight Ends and of course Wide recievers. Well I feel we have a good depth of Linebackers and I can't wait to watch the maturation of T-Good under Ray's wing. Ozzie did a great job of bringing in some Corners for us in Foxworth and Carr. LJ Smith is a little iffy but it's a year contract and adds depth to the TE position now that we probably won't be signing Wilcox. So that leaves reciever for our first round and it looks like DHB and Flacco have some chemistry based on the article on the Baltimoreravens.com homepage.

That all being said, I feel we need to do something with our D-Line. Haloti is a beast and one of our most unsung heroes. I feel the injury to Gregg (Who will probably be amazing next year) and Pryce's age need to be addressed. We don't have too much depth there besides Bannan and Edwards. Do you think we should try and trade or pick up a free agent D Lineman? or possibly pursue one in the 2nd or 3rd round perhaps?

I agree that we need to draft some young defensive lineman. I don't think this year's pool is very deep, so maybe we will look more into next year. We could always snag some depth late in the draft, and I am sure Ozzie will. We have no idea how Gregg's knee will hold up or how effective Pryce will be this year. I really think we need some explosive edge rushers by next year. J.J. doesn't cut it for pass rushing.

I still feel that we aren't bringing in enough DL into camp. I like how the Giants stack them going into camp. I'm hoping Dwan Edwards can go into for Pryce and get some real experience.

So picking Kruger in the 2nd round isnt addressing the d line?

Theres less questions about the DL. Flacco, Oher, ILB are more flashy topics than DL. The only question about our DL is if Gregg comes back healthy. And it looks so far that he is coming back healthy. Beyond that i have no questions about our DL because it is a position we are usually very solid at, knock on wood
