Charles Woodson

[TylerDurden]

I doubt woodson comes here we have no desire to be in win now mode and are trying to build toward the future he won't want to play with a bunch of scrubs that are just gonna make him look bad

People aren't exactly beating Woodson's door down, and the market determined that. It would be like a slightly more expensive Drayton Florence deal, only with a guarantee of much more production coming from the player.

How is this a funny thread? Aren't most people unhappy with the draft feeling that way b/c we didn't address the secondary (and/or WR)? Would Charles Woodson not instantly come here and start?

Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa! Fuging hilarious!!!

dude we had 4 opportunities to draft a quality "fresh DB" and it seems the Secondary is not of interest. Indeed I would love a proven vet but with the combo of Gettle/RR I doubt they are gonna spend much more money if any. We have some major bills due in the next few years.

I'd rather have Quintin Mikell. He's younger, plays SS, had a great year last year, and McDermott is familiar with him.

I'm disappointed that we didn't address the secondary but I'm withholding judgment until we see these guys on the field. Only pick I'm close to writing off before so is the 4th rounder.

Other than that, I'm approaching this as though Gettleman felt we needed to fix the 'unsexy' areas of the team, as I termed them earlier - the lines, the lunch pale guys, etc. and by doing so, I think he feels the playmakers already on the team will be able to step up and do more OR we will add some more vets post-draft to take on significant roles in those positions.

I'm guessing he viewed the team as a house. You can have an absolutely beautiful home on the exterior, but if there is a foundational issue, the home won't continue to stand. He fixed the foundation in this draft and I'm hoping he uses guys like Gettis on offense, adds quality FAs for the right price, and drafts more playmakers in the years to come to develop on both sides of the ball, now that the foundation is strong.

We are going to get swept by the bucs with Mike Glennon out wide lined up in the wildcat

I don't know if you guys know this or not, but older players like to go to teams that have a chance to compete. They don't just sign anywhere.

[TylerDurden]

Lol sz. Not feeling Gettleman's work?

agreed. I truly was expecting a DB or WR at least somewhere in the mix. Nevertheless, I assume this picks should not come as a surprise because the area the huddle wanted were already taken care of through free agency thus far according the the bosses. I think the next big issue for us is taking out the trash. We may as well take the trash out now instead of waiting until next year. I can slice two WRs, jimmy, Fua, and possibly make a feature trade or two.

Gettleman will all a sudden become GOD again

It's just funny that i predicted months ago that most of these people would hate Gettleman after today. The D needed to be addressed instead of having to outscore in the late part of the game, maybe we can hold an opponent to under 30.

Those people needs to start watching Arena Football.

It ain't the NFL without Defense

what "bunch of scrubs" are you speaking of?

[PhillyB]

at this stage of his career i suspect he'll want to sign with a contender, even if it means taking less money overall. that said i'd love him on a one or two-year contract... he'd be worth every penny IMO

If DWill is cut and we suddenly have 3-4 mill laying around......

But, he would play safety here.
