AR should have to wear a Flava Flav necklace until he learns how to manage a clock.
I am the proud target of temper tantrums.

I like the

Osweiler selection, he could be an intriguing QB to develop under Piggy and his main piglet, Minionwheg.

And while you have us signing 2 LBs, I would still like to see us try to get at least one of the top guys (LK or Brown) in the first and/or a project LB a little later if some LB happens to fall down the draft board and is a BPA during one of our later picks. Rolle played ok last year, but how many times have we seen a flash from one of our LBs only to find out the next year that he ain’t that good. Folks are pencilling him in as a starter, but he could regress like some of our other LBs have done. Happened to Cheney. Bradley, possibly because of injuries. Gocong to an extent, mostly because he was a round peg in a square hole here standing up and not rushing the passer, but I’ll move on. Matthews has a country mile to go before he can be relied on. Clayton has yet to spend significant time on the field. We have a roster where every LBon it, carries a significant question mark. Even if we are drafting late, gotta keep trying to, if nothing else, find a diamond in the rough who can be an above average NFL LB.

Mostly agree..

I wouldn’t cut/dump Colt Anderson, Owen Schmitt, or Akeem Jordan just yet. Colt Anderson because of his special teams play and he might turn into a decent 3rd string safety, should he ever play, but we can’t dump him yet because we don’t know how well he will recover from his injury or if he will be the same at all. Schmitt should be brought back because he needs to be challenged by someone during camp; a rookie or a FA should challenge his roster spot to give him some motivation. I through in Jordan because didn’t we just extend his contract for another season mid-way during the season or was that last season? The LB position should be fairly crowded this off-season which should push ALL the LB’s to improve. Also I know I left him out but I’m down to give Henry another chance at punting and to improve his leg but I think he should also be challenged.

Jason Avant in a trade is no good. He’s clutch as shit and you want to trade him on the hopes that some rookie we draft will be as good or better than him? Definitely not. I wouldn’t get rid of him unless we have someone PROVEN to take his place.

In regards to the draft, I have to agree with “The Reddgie”, I think even though we bring in one of the big name FA’s at the LB position that we sign another top LB early in the draft for good measure. But everything else was pretty “tits” on your post, good shit.
