I wouldn't mind going after another defensive tackle. We still need help there. I do agree that we should build our O-line mostly through the draft, though. The only guy out there that's worth big bucks is Faneca. I expect Flozell to re-sign. Gross, Starks and Womack are options, too, as long as the price is right.

I'm all for giving Hall an offer. He fits a need, he's still young, and if we get him we can cut Ty Law and essentially be paying him the same amount that we paid Ty Law. I think we would be in better position in the draft to go after offensive linemen first round and then maybe another corner in the second round. Just as long as we don't pull multiple panic free agent signings like the Bell, Knight, and Surtain (it was a sign-and-trade I know)spree I think we will be fine. Each season sign one great free agent that addresses a need and then build the rest through the draft.

Good stuff, Jason. I agree about Hall. And King Carl will get pushed. The real question is if it will be a push to put together a playoff team again, or a push out the door. I think it would be advantageous to keep him. He and Carl have really been working the draft for the most part, and he has more experience than anyone wooing free agents. We shall see. It’s up to Clark, I guess.

Agree, We will not go after the number 1 man at cb in the offseason, we never do. That leaves us DeAngelo because Samuel would be top notch. I would not object to either of these two but will we actually give up any money for them? With younger ownership now it may make a difference although Lamar will be missed, maybe the younger push on Carl after a horrible year will do the team some good.
