The problem that we have here is the #'s don't add up. We have to keep the same guys basically b/c we only have 1 top draft pick, so that's one defensive starter, maybe (and we know all about that).

I think that Daniels & maybe Golston would be backups at best anywhere else although Golston has real potential and could prove me wrong. Holdman and Marshall would most likely be backups anywhere else. Fox would be a backu...(oh yeah he was cut during the year right). BTW i do like Fox but it's hard to tell if he is starter material w/ such a bad defensive team. So add a safety to the list. So all day we need 1-2 lineman, 2 lb's, at least 1 cb for better depth w/ SS and 2 w/out SS, 1 safety.

That makes 5 defensive players that we need and only 1 pick "top" pick to do this. I doubt we will "raid" the FA market again. I'm sure we'll pick up at least one or two though. Over the last few years we have run our well dry. I have much respect for GW and i do think that he will have a better year next year. He is going to have to do it w/ players overachieving though.
