Definitely want us to draft OL in the first round. Maybe even first 2 rounds if we have a good opportunity. A better OL will make Rivers better and give Mathews more opportunities. Last season i don't think anyone would be able to run very well behind our O-Line.

I am with you on that. What I would like to see is them go:
1st rd OT
2nd rd OG
3rd rd Barner

or if a higher rated OG in the first is available then do that but definitely take an OT in the 2nd.

I don't know if i'd be too happy with a RB in the 3rd though. I think the secondary or maybe another LB would be more valuable to us if a quality player is there.

What we do in FA will obviously affect what we target in the draft. I'm happy enough with Weddle and Bigby at safety. Maybe Taylor will improve this offseason. We definitely need a new CB. We can't rely on Wright becoming good enough to be a starter. I want us to keep Phillips if we can afford him but we're going to need a replacement.

Well...........thought I was clear on being a Ducks homer.

As far as Phillips goes I would try to keep him as long as Manning is playing. He knows how to get in Peytons head and I put great value with that.

haha fair enough. A RB in the 4th or later i'd be happier with.

I think Phillips is underrated but maybe i miss some of the bad things he does. He's still great at knocking the ball down and he still gets in there every now and again for a sack. Keep him another few seasons while we try find someone who can replace him

I rather we draft someone and let him walk he will probably cost way to much.

It comes down to how much. If we can afford it i want us to keep him. We also have a bit of an issue at ILB. Butler is a beast but who will play next to him. Mouton hasn't done anything yet. Williams was pretty good but he plays the same position as Butler doesn't he?

See this is why I would suck as a GM........I would recognize the contribution he made to the team and keep him.

I'm too loyal to be a GM..............

Eh I rather pass on him, but we have different views of it.

For ILB I'm not sure of how what we do with that. Might as well figure out what we have in Mouton.

Have you heard this ?

True. Is your memory failing.

I spent some time with Cro recently and he is indeed a good guy...just like LT.
