Jethead Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Replacement for Kimo badly needed. Close behind is need for more Backers. Wouldn't mind seeing Barton beaten out by a young stud ILB and a pass rusher to compliment BT and VH would be nice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4HCrew Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I think they need a DT to get the running game stopped..and then move D Rob to end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 1. RB 2. CB 3. RDE / NT All MUST be addressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaborJet Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 A solid, starting, every down running back. Take the pressure off Chad, keep the offense from being one dimensional, and keep the ball away from the other team. We needed a good RB two weeks ago in the worst way.

johnny green balls Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 judging by tangini's limited drafting history, the smart money is that they address the d-line. seems these guys understand the value of controlling the trenches to a team's long-term viability unlike captain barbeque.

SouthernJet Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I would like a SHUTDOWN corner to go with the Dyson , who is very good , but not a shutdown CB. Shutdown corners help the DL, as the QB has to take extra time as he is always looking to #2 or #3 options. It allows nickelback to cover RBs instead of slower LBs doing it. Plus you take one of opposing teams biggest weapons out of game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjam76 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 They need some good linebackers, DT, DE, and Corners.. Because it's all a team game.. If the corners can't cover anybody, that means they really can' t blitz often.. If the DL can't get any pressure on the QB, it means they have to blitz more.... Either way they need to start putting pressure on the QB, stop the run, and have some shutdown corners and good linebackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Hasty Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 No one else voted for OL? You have to be kidding me? On paper, Adrian Jones is our starting RT now that Clemnts is a UFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gang_green03 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Defensive line is our biggest need. It all starts in the trenches. If our d-line did a better job of eating up blockers and controling the line it would have a domino effect and help our entire defense. Greater than any other defensive need. It would help our run defense and also free up our backers. With more blockers being taken up we'd be able to generate a better pass rush. A better pass rush will help our CBs. Seems like a no-brainer to me. To bad there doesn't seem to be any really good NT prospects available this offseason. But a DE is the next best thing because we absolutely CANNOT go into next season with Kimo starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
