He's statistically one of the best run stopping corners in the league. He's improved year over year in that category consistently. Please dont ask me to back that up. I cant remember how it was calculated or where i heard it.

I think this goes for our entire secondary unit. Hopefully Raheem Morris can whip this group into shape. Having a question mark at SS worries me a bit, though I do hope that Atogwe plays well and stays healthy.

An improved offense should help out the defense a lot this year. This why I really hope the team focuses most of their resources on the offense. You can never have too many players and I am sure they will draft/sign some defensive players, but I would prefer if they spend more on the offense than the defense.

This will be a tough sell given that Mario Williams is available as an unrestricted free agent. Although I wonder if the Patriots will all of those draft picks would be willing to pick him up. Still, if they are in cap problems, teams can just sit and wait until the Colts cut him.

That is a good page to bookmaker because they update it through out the off season, so yo uknow where guys are landing.


BTW- notice who is missing from that list? He was a top ten pick.

Bingo. I thought that was weird. Figured he at least be in the top 50 of anyone's list.

King probably has him penciled in at 51.

Could they still be in "cap hell" like their owner said going into last year?

Losing Manningham, Jacobs, Ross most likely...who else? Most SB-winning teams like to stay intact, not dismantle themselves.
