A. Luck come out of the draft and we get him or Green, and see what happens from there

or

B. Niether Luck or Green come out, and we adress DT, CB, OL, or possibly take anther WR not named Green and see what Cluasen has in his sophmore year.

I think B. If Jimmy blows then we have upgraded another position of need, and possible in the running for Luck or Green again, and if Jimmy (and OL) does well then we are all happy, and hopefully playoff bound.

thoughts?

Sign vet qb no matter what.

Cut or Trade Pike. Keep Clausen.

Sign as many quality DT's or O-lineman as available on the free agency market.

Resign Kalil, Davis, D-Will, Anderson, Marshall (if cheap, if not cut him)

Extend Beason

See if Luck Declares-draft him if available. If not trade down and pray Peterson, Green, or a decent DT is available.

Pray there is football in 2011

I think the offensive line needs to be addressed before anything. Defense is good enough to get to the playoffs. Peyton would look awful with this line. They are truly offensive; because of that we have to keep running backs and tight ends in to block. So teams stack the box and we see the same results like ground hog day over and over.

OL needs can be addressed well enough in FA and that is the direction we should go there. major needs are RG and a backup center. this isn't a good year for OGs and you really don't want to draft one of those in the first round.

DT is also a position i would much rather address in FA. i just prefer experience in the interior of the lines. also, this isn't a great year for DTs, either. DE, i think we are fine with. getting an upgrade at DT will make our DEs more productive.

we need a vet QB brought in as well, but i wouldn't count on finding one that is start worthy. they just won't be there. only way to get a start worthy QB is to trade for one and that would be a whole lot more expensive than drafting luck first overall. teams just don't part with top quality QBs. brees was a once in a blue moon type situation and i'd rather not gamble and try to find that. 99% of the time you are going to fail to find that stud that falls through the cracks. we do need a set of experienced eyes on the sidelines to help our young QB(s).

if luck doesn't come out, i might go ahead with peterson, but have no problem trading down and picking the BPA among CB or DT...maybe DE or WR, even though the need isn't all that great. i also wouldn't be opposed to drafting newton.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
