Add a Veteran WR?

[FRPLG]

Nope..move Kelly and Thomas to 1/2 and drop Moss to the slot. That immediately better use of their talents.

great idea. and Moss has been in the league 8 years. doesn't that make him a veteran?

boom. hit it on the head. the three mentioned will be more than serviceable, especially with two talented TEs added into the mix. take whatever we were going to use to get a "vet WR," and put it towards an O-Line.

Thought I clearly stated that we should focus our draft on the OL?

Yeah but that almost seems like an afterthought, at least that's the way it came across.

There is some good OL FA coming available ... or so I hope. Plus the draft.

[Dr Do Itch Big]

Oh hell no, O line should be our draft! (look at the Jets last night!)

The PATS Logan Mankins is, however like Marshall he would become an RFA for 2 years if there is no new CBA. Would love to grab that guy

We do not have a leader in the locker room to help keep Marshall's outspoken personality in check. Plus, I like what we have seen from our 2008 2nd rounders and feel they deserve a legitimate shot. Throw in Moss and Marko (discard EL) and I think we are solid at receiver. Bring in OL, a franchise signal caller, a decent back and some quality depth and we could be respectable again soon!

[FRPLG]

Yeah we really don't have a need for a WR. We don't have the best corps in the league but it isn't devoid like a few years ago. Besides we can't get the ball to them since we can't do anything but 3-step drops.

If Brandon Marshall becomes available we will get him, especially if Shanahan is here. whether we need him or not is a different story.

Given that Shanny and Marshall had a major falling out in Denver, Shanny might be the last person in the NFL to bring in Marshall.

This is the problem around here. Why do we need a veteran receiver?? We have 3 young talented receivers. LETS DEVELOP OUR TALENT, instead of putting old talent to pasture. With Moss (who personally, I'd get rid of) Thomas, Kelly, Mitchel we have three big talented guys. We can find a 4th and 5th receiver late in the draft or undrafted FA. Plus if, thats a big IF, we keep Cooley and Davis we wouldn't need to have a bunch of receivers.

I agree....The core of the offense needs to be rebuilt and we rebuild from the inside out, not he other way around. Our problem is not that we don't have the receivers, we don't have the blockers for the QB charged with getting the ball to them.
