Will Saunders Affect Our QB Situation?

[AnonEmouse]

My theories:

They get a marquee receiver in FA and probably an OG. Dockery and Thomas are good, but I think a top notch guard pushing Dockery to 1st backup gives us the OL we need. Of course, this relies on Thomas coming back at full strength. I do agree with Tony McGee in that we may trade Ramsey to Detroit for a WR (plus picks etc. to balance the trade), but if they can't trade for the talent, we get a FA. Drafting a WR is too hit and miss at this stage. Maybe draft a #3/#4 WR to develop.

What Saunders gives us is an OC that is good at judging when to try the big play. Musgrave can work with Campbell and a backup on technique, but Saunders will scheme an offense for Brunell. He will start next year, but Campbell will be brought up to speed as #2 and prepared to go in if Brunellis hurt at all. Gibbs didn't trust Ramsey enough until Brunell couldn't go back in. We need a #2 with the confidence of the staff to put him in at the first sign of trouble. Pushing Brunell back in on a gammy leg next year could finish his career and leave us a veteran QB down.

I also wouldn't be surprised to see them go after a good TE along the lines of Didier. Cooley gives us great options as H-back, but Royal is a blocker first and we need more underneath outlets.
