There are a lot of good corners or players that played corner like Johnson from Montana and could possibly move to safety. Ryan Broyles is a great slot receiver and their is that kid who went to a small school his name i completely forget (I just found out it was Brian Quick), Cooley hopefully will start to work hard again cause he has a qb which will give us Cooley and Davis(this is hopeful) we don't need a first round pick in order to add depth and make our team better. If you want to be the Eagles and probably never win a superbowl with their current roster then build through free agency. But we can draft players and sign a few key guys and we will be ok. I believe in Griffin

I'm not sure we're really disagreeing on anything here. Basically we need to utilize the draft and make a few key plays in free agency; because we made the Griffin trade, that balance is going to be skewed a bit. I'm not advocating anything like what the Eagles did last year, or the things that we've done in the past, but in the event that the team has developed a well-deserved phobia of expensive free-agents, this might be a year to reconsider.
