I hope we make moves over the next few days to bring in at least one starter at safety (Clemons), a nickel CB (Munnerlyn or Graham), a couple of pass rushing DE (Smith is a good start) and a potential starting OL. I'm nowhere near the panic button yet. Too many times in the past I was dancing in March and drinking in October.

Exactly why I find it interesting there are some people out there, not a lot but some, that are going apeshit over how we didn't get Byrd, Talib, or even Mitchell. I know Mitchell's contract is pretty reasonable, but perhaps he just preferred going to Pittsburgh? Sometimes you can't buy everyone you want.

Point is all is not lost just because we didn't land those guys. Still other options out there including the draft. I know people are tired of hearing it, but Jackson could be reinstated too. Rambo could improve in year 2, and Thomas will be back in the mix.
