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.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
