    Well hey, here is to hoping that every player we draft is an instant starter. Else bloody bholes on D.

    Seriously? Do you remember Edgerrin James? He is 11th all time on the NFL rushing list and got most of those yards as a Colt . . . CJ will be just fine I think.

    Not with our line as it currently stands.

    Yeah, he may actually see seven in the box for the first time in his career.

    I'm getting psyched. Manning throwing to Britt, Cook, Wash, and Williams with CJ in the backfield behind our tackles + Hutch and Wells...

    Assuming both CJ and Peyton are close to 2010 form... how the hell do you stop that?

    And maybe, just maybe, CJ can actually catch when someone throws him the ball ACURATELY for a change?

    Um . . . isn't that why we are looking at bringing a center and a guard? Can get help there in the draft as well . . .

    If we get who we are looking at on the OL and Manning, C. J. will blow it up. The mismatches Manning will see and take advantage of will be amazing . . .

    Has anyone ever heard of a salary cap? Just curious...some of you are living in a dream world where the streets are lined in UT orange and the skies rain money with Manning's face on the front.

    If we sign Manning, I think we'd be able to sign ONE of Hutchinson/Myers/Wells.

    I'd say we could get 2 of those 3...

    Manning won't demand 20 mil and even if he does Hutch Myers and Wells all will be fairly cheap considering..

    And that'd really be all we need. Sure it'd be nice to have Hutch and one of the centers. But if we just replace Amano with one of those centers the line will be GREATLY improved.

    Yeah, because our defense is WAY better off than it was last year with the losses of Finnegan, Jones, and Ball.

    Our D-line is depleted. Derrick Morgan is entering bustland and the only constants we have are Casey and Klug.

    We cannot afford to have those gaping holes simply filled through the draft. Get real. Sure, we may be able to hit on a few players but let's be honest, we are in a serious bind right now trying to fill holes on the line and by filling Finny's shoes.

    Need I remind you people that players need to be re-signed NEXT year? Cook, McCourty, etc..

    If I'm wrong...prove me wrong. Draw up what you think each player will make and if I agree, I'll shut up. Until then, I say that everyone is turning a blind eye to our glaring needs on the defensive side of the ball.
