What's all this talk about needing a WR? We have plenty. You can have the four best WRs in the league, but if you QB doesn't have the time to get them the ball then it doesn't matter.

We need to bolster in the Offensive line. It seems like every off season the OL is always overlooked, and every season it sucks.

Thank You! Gracias! Merci! Irigoto?!

I think people don't realize that the reasons the Chiefs Offense was so good was not because of Al Saunders, but rather an excellent Offensive Line. Right now we have a good offensive line but we can make it great by adding a guy like Brandon Albert, Carl Nicks, or Chilo from USC.

Also how did we win 3 Super Bowls? Why the Hogs of course!

Think about it we won 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's and 3 different RB's. Our best WR had to practically beg to be in the Hall of Fame (no disprespect intended to the Great Art Monk). Great Offensive Lines can make good RB's great, as well as good WR's since their QB will have more time to throw.

Screw signing a premadonna to make one or two big plays a game. Build me a foundation where I can end up getting those plays from the guy in the third row who won the halftime promotion. I'm SO over WR's. Build the OL, one way or another. Lets scare the crap out of people with 5 big guys up front, not some guy thats going to be doing the river dance in the end zone.

um, faine is the highest paid center in the league now. mike flynn is good and available, but he's 33 now (former raven, they ditched rabach and kept flynn a few years back).

Ben Troupe is a better much TE, and he's only 25. wilson really isn't an upgrade or a threat to catch anything.

hackett's numbers sound right.

i know you love brian kelly, but i really rather have dyson, who's cheaper, at CB and draft a safety in the 3rd... dyson has more years left too. i mean, 5mill for 1 year from a db seems excessive.

Ben Troupe hasn't done a whole lot in his career, and is a worse blocker. Obviously, Faine's not on the market anymore, but we can still do the rest.

If we have signed Collins, Brunell won't be back, even at league min.

Well if I am the GM then I have to say absolutely no to all free agent moves, especially any one that Brings Brunell back! I would have more than enough confidence that I can start filling needs through the draft, which we need to start doing, which is one reason we have very little cap space to begin with.

I would start by drafting Cromartie at CB, I believe CB is our biggest need right now, I would then turn my attention to offensive line. This should be the focal point of our draft, we will not fill all our needs at once there has been to much neglect in the personnel department. The goal this year is to bring in young talent and lower our cap number for next season where a good draft could put us over the top. CB's and O linemen this draft!

All of a sudden Hackett is the next big time WR????????? I do believe we can survive without a big time contract for Hackett!

comparing him to wilson, who's older and done less, doesn't really prove your point.

I want one FA... Justin Smith. Fill the other holes w/ draft or some after June 1 cuts.

Not sure why we would look to replace Rabach, but I do agree on Hackett.

I'd poop my pants at work if we got Hackett.

I couldn't figure that one out either. Seems some misplaced blame for some of the OL woes last year. We need a backup C/G type, but don't need to drop $8 million (apparently Faine got more than $12 million ... whoa) for a center to oust Rabach, who I think has played very well since he's been here.
