And I NEVER said anything about drafting a return specialist… I DID though say and want to draft a Joshua Cribbs type of player who is great at CB AND KR… THATS what Im Hoping in drafting a certain WR or CB.

Look, Derrick, if youre trying to call me out, Im fine with that. Cause I told you before and I’ll tell you again… Youre NOT telling me something I dont ALREADY know. I KNOW our main holes. I KNOW our minor holes… and if you’ve read my comments, then you’d know that Ive BEEN hollering Starks! D. Hall! Faneca! T. Richardson, Stallworth, B.Johnson, Shaun Rogers! Why? cause I Know What This team needs.

Roc…….you said you didn’t want to sign mediocre 2nd/3rd string special teams players for the sake of competition. Well I never said sign anyone for the sake of competition, I said sign Boiman (who is an upgrade as both a backup LB and a great special teams player), I said sign Andre Davis (a great KR who did a good job as the #2 option when Johnson was hurt), and sign Josh Brown (one of the premiere kickers). You said you wanted to upgrade through the draft, but unfortunately retrun specialists are now high picks (1st day picks), kickers (see Justin Medlock) are not guarantees, and quality backup linebackers are hard to find in the draft because usually a high IQ comes from experience. With all that being said you also have to realize our main holes (OL and CB) and alot of our minor holes (FB, WR, DL, and TE) need to all be filled in the draft as well.

One other thing perhaps worth mentioning – USA Today recently included Hadnot among their “Valued 7″ free agency list.
