3 hours in and we lost our most explosive athlete and our best defensive leader!

Wright, Simpson, Rudolph and felton pretty much round it out. Throw in Carlson and you got full squad.

We have lots of draft picks grasshopper. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

Hope those picks can run routes.... Play Lb, PLay DT and cover Wrs...
We are going to need 20 picks.

Calm down, The team will be stronger by training camp than it has been in years and it will be younger.

+1

Just because we got 3 quality starters in last years draft doesn't mean that we will be able to do that every year. You are lucky to get ONE first year starter in the draft. We need at least 2 receivers. At least one guard. At least two linebackers. Re-signing 2 role players and losing 2 stars is not a good grade in my book. How could that be good in anyone's book? We made the playoffs last year.

I'm thinking The spielman has a trick up his sleeve. He's working something BIG! I keep telling myself that: OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER. Or he's doing an awesome imitation of the "Alpha Legion" space Marines......They take the looooooong view.

Nerd ass reference, I know.

No way man. Losing Percy Harvin and Antoine Winfield makes us STRONGER? That is ridiculous.

We won more games without Harvin than with him. He was a great talent but an ass to deal with for the coaches. Winny was old and tired, couldn't stay healthy and he needed to be culled from the herd.
