Our Cap Dudes: Still Brilliant

[The Goat]

I'm no cap guru...I understand it's importance but ultimately the Skins "creativity" doesn't impress me in the least when compared to say the Iggles, constantly WAY under the cap and consistently a playoff team.

Soooo as to the renegotiated deals...meh.

The prospect of Suh being there at 4 is mildly entertaining when you assume Okung is already off the board. Can he play LDE in the 3-4? I ask because as best I can tell Daniels is the only guy we've got slated to hold that spot. Jarmon and Zoe are trimming down and probably not really well suited to hold the position anyway. So yeah Sue could fill a need. My gut however is the first 3 picks are Bradford, Okung, Suh in that order and we'll face a tough dilemma.

Let's not credit the Iggles w/"creativity" though. Rather, it's having a sound biz plan & sticking to it. They haven't had to restructure & juggle contracts because they haven't gotten themselves into a mess that forces them to like the skins.

I think Suh is the best player in this draft. If he's there at 4 it would be hard to pass him up IMO, but it looks like Haslett & Shanny are set on going 3-4. I would rather see us get Suh & then really mix up the defense, going 4-3 w/AH & Suh at DT, then 3-4 w/both of them at DE, Rak at OLB. There are ways to get both of those guys in, whether playing 3-4 or 4-3, but I don't know how practical that is from a coaching standpoint.
