You hit it out of the park with these two points. Nice Job!
I have always believed a great team has to have a good mix of stars and good blue collar players. They all have a vital part and all have to contribute, especailly in the age of the salary cap. The problem is our blue collar guys are not playing well just yet.
We have no great inexpensive, undrafted free agent head hunters on our team. This has always been one main complaints with our default GM's Snyder and Vinny bag of doughnuts. The do not draft well in the lower rounds and free agency.
