rebuilding or FA frenzy?

[Jontrem]

I would like to see us sign a nice combination of younger guys and older vets (to shorter term deals) and just be smart about FA. I think the strategy that we had in the draft was a good one (even if I thought there was one too many trade downs). Even someone like asomugha makes me a little leery, true he is only 29 but I am sure it is going to take a huge contract to bring him here and by the time the rest of the team is ready to truly compete for a SB (3-4 years if everything goes well) he is going to be 32-33.

I am not saying I think we will be bad for 3-4 years, just not really ready to seriously compete for a SB

Free agency will be needed to upgrade the OL - - because the draft did not focus there.

If the OL is not upgraded significantly, then serious team improvement is unlikely.

Agreed, wonder if any of the 10' class will get a serious look at playing time.

Having young and inexpensive players like Eric Cook and Selvish Capers have break out years and play well enough become a starter in the NFL would be ideal.
