What position do you think we need to fill in FA

I agree about needing a third down guy. I would like to see them bring in Kevin Walter at WR or I wouldn't hate seeing them bring in a better TE, maybe Ben Watson. Another long shot I would like to see is bringing in Kyle Orton to play QB. He is a RFA I believe, and the dude is pretty steady. IMO definitly an upgrade over what we have and he would make for a fairly smooth transition if they draft someone. Obviously I would also like to possibly see them bring in a right tackle.

I am not expecting all of that to actually get done in free agency. In fact I don't expect much in free agency and the FO seems to be on board with building via the draft.

I agree....FA this year seems pretty slim, so the demand is going to be pretty high which means it is a recipe to overpay for a mid level talent.

I guess we will see what happens but I don't expect to see us all that active in that market except for maybe one of the QBs.....unless we decide to just keep Anderson this year. It is a uncapped year...keeping him isn't going to put pressure on the team to trim all that much somewhere else.

The pickings will be slim and overpriced this season heres to hoping we use FA very carefully and as little as possible..

As for DA i cant see him being kept around unless he agrees to restructure his contract to more of what he is worth which would be around the nfl minimum wage ,so i look forward to kissing DA goodbye by this weekend or early next week..

Gee, a guy with the initials T.O. is available. He kind of fits your bill.

Though, isn't Mike Furrey a veteran 3d down possession guy with great hands? He does have great hands.

Ya and how many catches did Mike Furrey have? And T.O. is a cancer

I think vincent jackson is one of the most underrated WR's in the league. Immediate impact player

Furrey caught everything thrown his way just about.

That wouldn't be trivia, that would be an opinion. A trivia question has a specific right answer. Opinions are what I use my Monday surveys for.

You are welcome to participate in either my Opinion surveys or the trivia, or to start your own thread.

Just read a few articles on PFT...

There is a CB, a starter coming of a decent season, that is being tendered only at 2nd round from Carolina.

Boldin can be had from the Cardinals for a 3rd round pick.
