What is the FO is really saying

[Smithers]

I cannot remember a draft in the Fox/Hurney era when our first 3 picks were used on offensive players. This is an offensive league, and the FO is finally realizing that.

The quality of the picks is yet to be seen, but I think Fox is planning on winning games on the offensive side of the ball this year. We will have an average defense, but man are we going to score some points (as long as the rookies contribute).

we have no choice. we have to try to keep pace with the saints. it's an offensive arms race.

It could also be that we feel more comfortable with the defensive weapons we have than our offensive ones. We strive for balance mostly -- strong on both sides of the ball. Remember that the Saints were chumps the year before with a strong offense and no defense to speak of.
