Might as well put mine out there as well. This is thrown together fairly quickly, so go ahead and have at it. There will be some of the same names as others, and some different ones. I'm only including our UFA, no RFA or ERFA.
NEW HC
Lovie Smith
He'll hire his own staff, so I'll leave that out.
UFA RESIGNED
Andy Levitre
Jairus Byrd
These two are the most important to resign, and are a necessity to continue moving forward IMO.
Leodis McKelvin
At worst he provides good return ability. At best he can solidify the #2 CB spot. Either way I think he's worth keeping around.
Kyle Moore
At worst solid depth. Will be cheap to retain him.
FA SIGNINGS
Devery Henderson - WR
At best the #3 option in NO, will come in and happily accept the #2 role behind Stevie.
Isreal Idonije - DE
Follows Lovie to Buffalo and will rotate with Anderson.
Derek Cox - CB
Comes in and competes for the #2 spot right away.
Geno Hayes - OLB
Another of Lovie's defensive guys to follow him to Buffalo.
DRAFT
ROUND 1
Manti Te'o - MLB
Centerpiece of our defense for years to come
**TRADE**
We trade our 2nd and 4th this year, and 2nd next year to MIN (early 20's).
ROUND 1 - 2ND PICK
Tyler Wilson - QB
Lovie gets his QB of the future, who can also sit behind Fitz and learn for a while.
ROUND 3
Robert Woods - WR
He falls due to drop off in production last year, as well as USC's awful season. Comes in and starts in the Slot from day 1, with potential to become #2.
ROUND 4 - Traded
ROUND 5/6 - Depth
Round 7 - Traded
Have at it! _________________

Change Wilson to Boyd and I will be happy. Tajh Boyd is the best QB in this draft. People just dont know it yet. _________________

He still hasn't declared, and i don't think he will. I like the whole situation, good job. Woods in the third is nice. _________________

Skip Bayless would call you a prisoner of the moment right now. I would agree with him. _________________

Decent draft not sure if woods will be there in the 3rd. Not a fan of the FA I think a top wr or cb would be better then picking up 4 mediocre players.
I have watched tahj all year and ill tell you he is nothing special. Ej Manuel will have a better career then that guy. Prototypical physical features of a pro style qb, jumbo fishers offense which is a pro style, look at ponder for examples _________________

I tried to keep it realistic. Before Mario, when was the last time we signed a top FA, at any position? And Cox will be be of the top FA CB out there. We won't sign Bowe or Jennings, and Henderson is a guy that could come in and be happy with the #2 role. He's similar to Meachem, who we went after last year.
Also, I only know 4 Vikings fans personally. Judging from the way they speak about Ponder, he probably isn't the guy to use as a reference to make another QB sound better. They all hate Ponder, and talk about how awful he is. _________________

I disagree. I am a big FSU fan and Manuel is just to wildy inconsistent for my liking. He had one good game in his career against Clemson but so did Boyd. I am not saying Boyd is going to be great either but he just seems to be more consistent with his play other than some issues with accuracy. I would much rather take Boyd at this point but he is behind some other gusy for me still that would be there in rd 2. _________________

| Very solid off season.. Te'o, Wilson and Woods is a solid draft, I like Cox a lot and keeping Levitre / Byrd is golden. |

He is just very underrated because he plays in the hole that is Jacksonville. _________________
