How crucial is this years Draft now?

[pstall]

Keep in mind no #1 and a good # of holes to fill. Right now the FO can NOT afford to have any serious whiffs in their picks.

Also, there are young guys that will get some PT and thats cool. But look at the guys they were backing up. They were backing up many guys that were either let go from their former team or not that great.

This draft may end up being the most important one in the franchise's history.

Considering we have crap for picks, hopefully not very.

Ok...how would you prepare your team if you're heading into an uncapped year with the more than likely potential of a capped/rookie salary setup the next...or a lockout. Do you lock in a lot of large contracts? Or simply be frugal to prepare.

I don't know.

This is the biggest question. How do you bridge this year thru 2012

If it were me...I'd be frugal and stockpile picks. I'm talking Hershel Walker-esque trade (Smitty or DeAngelo).

I have had the very same thought. Hope not but they need to load up on value.

[OneBadassCat]

The needs are still the same.

haha, they're gonna trade DeAngelo for a pick or to AND 2011's first round pick to move into the first round this year :eek:
