maybe a one or two year contract, but i agree doesn't look like we are in a real position to do anything. but maybe by doing this we will avert a real blown up later.
granted salary cap is not one of my strong points. surtain would be nice but it's a dream because he will want some cash. and we are alittle short. we do need some line help, cb help lb, help and i really would like them to get elton brand guard out of va.

Did you mean Elton Brown?
I agree with you that we need to start to develop a new guard or two. While I like Derrick Dockery and he is servicable, he has been slow to develop and this may be his last chance to shine or he will get replaced. In today's NFL, you cannot live with just average players. Dockery needs to lift himself to the next level.

Im sure Pryce will be cut, espeically since the bronocs just traded for and signed the browns dline from last year. Pryce could be another incentive based contract candidate. Of course, the broncos can afford to keep him and might since him and brown are both coming off injuries.

id rather get a young smaller de in the 270lb range that can rush the edges in pass down situations, ive been hoping we draft swancutt (oregon st.) i think it is... but if we do want a bigger de, than i hope we draft canty (virgina) ... either one of those should be available with our third round. canty might go sooner than our third but he would have been a high choice if it weren't for his senior season ending injury.

i would like to get trevor pryce. but once we trade rod gardner i think we should sign jamie sharper, the middle linebacker just released by the texans. he would be a good fit and we would have 4 mil under the cap so it wouldn't be much of a problem.

We need about half of that $4 mil to sign our rookies. Our 1st round pick is high, so he will not come cheap.
And yes, rookies do count against the over all salary cap, even though there is a rooke cap.
