Re: This Offseason - BE THE OWNER!!!!!

If I am Snyder then I am giving the team to 53Fan as a late Christmas present.

Re: This Offseason - BE THE OWNER!!!!!

Alright let's see. Assuming I'm the GM not owner...blah blah....

Cutting: ARE, rabach, smoot, wynn, phillip daniels, todd collins, samuels and randy thomas, cartwright, betts, griffin

Resigning: anthony montgomery, chris wilson, hunter smith, jason campbell, golston, levi jones(depth), lorenzo alexander, quinton ganther, mike williams (depth), reed doughty (special teams), mcintosh, yoder, and heyer (depth).

Try to trade moss for picks or cut him, and try to trade rogers for picks, or resign him at a reasonable deal.

I think there's a better chance of trading down from our 2nd rd pick than our 1st. That being said, here's what I'd like out of the draft:

1st - Berry. If he's gone, then okung, and if somehow both are gone then gerald mccoy (assuming suh's gone too). I like berry as the top talent in the draft, and we'd certainly be getting our money's worth by taking him. Okung's good, but not THAT much better than the rest of the tackles in the draft - likewise with the QBs. Drafting berry lets us move landry to SS, and could give us a spectacular FS for the next decade. With a top 5 pick, you have to go for best available, regardless of need.

2nd - trade down for a later second rounder and late third rounder (think 17th/18th in both 2nd and 3rd rounds). With the later second round pick take Charles Brown, OT, USC. Perfect fit for zone blocking scheme, and OT is clearly a big need

3rd - Tony Pike/Dan LeFevour. Both have decent arms and upsides, and could be developed by shanny.

4th - I like taking a CB here, specifically someone like akwasi owusu-ansah. Good size, speed, and the most important part: return skills. Would be a great special teams player for us, and we can use more depth at CB, especially with carlos rogers' status being questionable and getting rid of smoot.

5th - Jacob hickman, C, Nebraska. I really just can't stand casey rabach and want to see him gone. If we address center in FA (see below), then I like OT/OG/RB here

6th/7th - OT/OG/RB in both rounds


FA: I think our chief concerns to address in FA are LB, WR, and OL depth. One name I'd really really like to sign is Eugene Amano from the Titans. He's a great youngish center who can also play guard, and we could probably get him for a really good value. For LB, if we can get dansby for a decent price, I say we do it, so orakpo can move to DE. Even a slighty questionable price would be okay (deangelo hall deal-esque) Another good option would be merriman here. Then we need to find a WR in FA as well, whether it's kevin walter, antonio bryant, or brandon marshall (depending on ease of acquisition due to FA restrictions). I think we also sign peyton hillis from denver. Then we need to decide whether we're trying to be a 3-4 team or not - vince wilfork would deserve a long hard look if that is our long term goal. Lastly, perhaps address the kicking game by signing gostkowski; I'm unsure if gano is the long term answer, although I do like the guy and would like to give him a chance.

you do know that we don't have a 6th or 3rd round pick right?

My bad about the 6th rd pick, but that doesn't really change the plan...

If you are the owner, you can't sign Durant Brooks

Eagles sign punter Brooks to 2-year deal - NFL - Yahoo! Sports
