Who is left in FA that we could use?

The Problem with the current roster, anyone gets hurt on Oline or Dline, and it wont be a pretty season.

Very true, but I was curious was McClain and Fua playing when we were getting ran over or was it Irvin and Hayden? I know Irvin was a starter and with him gone our line should get better. I think Harrison will be our starter with McClain coming in as a rotational guy. McClain is good but is said not to have enough energy to play every down. If Harrison can become a decent starter then I believe our defense will be good enough to be around the top 12.

yeah, i don't remember who was on the field at any point during that time, but there wasn't one that i was impressed with and i doubt they went without rotating the guys. could be, though.

No teams were looking for Fua and McClain when they ran the ball. Harrison doesn't change anything. We have the worst DT situation in football right now. If RR and Hurney let it stay this way I will be picking alot of RB who play against us in fantasy football.

I think we might have some kind of verbal agreement with Pat Williams to sign him after week 1, considering he's suspended for the first 2 weeks anyways.

That's not good enough. Zona is a winnable game if we can improve our Dline situation right now.

Oh I agree. I'm still hoping for Tommie Harris.

Given the youth at each position (DT & CB), its hard to see how this will play out

As mentioned, we're set at the OL for now

I do think Marcus Harrison will be more effective than either Fua and McClain at this point but we still need an addition.

Josh Thomas will be a dime guy and this Stevie Brown kid is actually an interesting prospect. People forget we had 2 5-9 CBs in Ricky Manning & Reggie Howard supporting Reggie Howard in 2003. I don't see why our new defensive minded HC with a great CB coach in Meeks can't make something out of these guys.

I think we make a move via trade for a CB and get either Tommie or Igor for the other DT

Regardless, 1 DT, 1 CB, & 1 DE (maybe)

Pat Williams

He can't play the 1st 2 weeks of the season. I really don't want to help Benie Wells Pro Bowl Resume this week. I would like to get sombody who can play Now.

That is true we may have another run after the first week.

[jarhead]

Some of the guys sitting now will likely be picked up by us and other teams after week one is over so that teams don't have to guarantee their salary.

I think you are right.The defense still need help...maybe trade Conner as well.

[CRA]

Pat Williams

Pat will be a hired gun...and will have options with more competitive teams.

[Jackofalltrades]

Marcus Stroud

Busted shoulder

[Matthias]

Do any of you think we could trade Connor to the Patriots for Darius Butler straight up?

[jtnc]

Does Rivera not like Tommie Harris or does Harris not like Rivera? It's odd we haven't brought this guy in.
