Seems more likely that we will go DE/LB and then draft a OL in the 3rd.

I never said anything about cutting Samuels? I believe I said when Heyers finally develops into good T, which will take more than a year.. Unless he surprises us all this season.. I only meant to explain that we would not have any concerns regarding T for years if Heyers flourishes and we draft a future stud T.. It doesn't mean we would have to cut Samuels - god, I hope this won't be the case.. Samuels have done alot for us, ain't going to be a great way to pay him back by cutting him.. When Samuels retires, we wouldn't have to worry about getting a T because we would already have Heyers waiting in the wing (that, of course, is only if we extend his contract or resign him; which I am hopeful but kinda pretty sure that the FO will)..
