Some nice names on there, really like Lotulelei, Joeckel, Werner and Lewan. Kyle Long should be on our radar aswell for obvious reasons though it looks like he may rise up draft boards and be the opposite of a 'sleeper'!!!

I'm extremely confident that the conservative Mckenzie isn't going spend his first 1st rd pick with his new organization on a health risk. Imo, he's going to play it close to the vest and draft a consensus no brainer with a high floor (ie:Loeckell or Lewan).
I would also like to see the Raiders trade back where Mingo, Jordan, Montgomery or Matthews come into play but I don't think it will happen.

Plus it's not realistic to expect to sign all the best FAs. Half of which will either be franchised, resigned, or demand too much money. Lets be real ch888

i think most of the quality guys will want to sign with contenders or big market teams. imo we arent a attractive free agent destination.......yet.

Of course not. But how many would you expect to sign? NFL teams never make more then 2 big FA signings an off-season, and that's if you have a lot of money to work with.

Allot of those guys aren't big name guys I didn't include Wes Welker, Brian Urlacher, Ed Reed, Matt Schaub, Joe Flacco, Victor Cruz, Anthony Spencer, Dwight Freeney, Rashard Mendenhall, Felix Jones, Reggie Bush, Tony Gonzalez, and many more.
Seeing New England signed 15 free agents a few years ago, and the Eagles signed I don't remember how many 2 years ago they can sign 5 or more.
What ever position they can't get they address in the draft MLB there is none in free agents so that will be an issue if they let McClain go. |

To bad they couldn't get the 2nd pick then hopefully bait some team to trade a ton of picks like the Rams got the Redskins too.
It would be nice for them to trade back a few spots, and pick up a 2nd round pick we'll see how good Reggie is. |

Pretty much all of those players are going to command a good chunk of money. Plus a lot of them won't even hit the market. We're not going to sign 5 of those players. Maybe a few stop gaps, and if we're lucky one really good player, but you don't build teams through FA.

They are going to have to address middle linebacker in the draft for sure because there isn't any except Brian Urlacher which he is old, and can't stay healthy, plus his price tag just won't be worth it.
With only 6 draft picks they are going to have no choice, but to sign allot of free agents. |

IMO any losing team is gonne have a difficult time in F.A. and be forced to overpay. Not only are we a losing team, but it seems we have a culture of losing, its been what, 10 years and the best we've done is 8-8, the average at closer to 5-11?
I think the Eagles are a pretty good example of why you don't build through free agency. IMO if we are ever gonna turn it around, we need to learn how to draft.
IMO we should not be looking for a QBoF in this draft. It's weak for QB's especially considering how loaded last years draft was. Matt Barkley i see as being a typical USC QB with over inflated stats because he plays on arguably the most stacked offense in the league (Robert Woods, Marquis Lee,etc...). And Geno Smith i'm just not sold on, he's had some record breaking performances but nothing about him really stands out to me. He's not the first guy to put up incredible numbers.
I think RM will try to trade back, though realistically our value really drops off if we are later than pick 5. IMO Manti Te'o could very easily go top 10, which doesn't really give us too much room to trade back,and we're probably reluctant to spend another high pick on a MLB... The other guy i'm pulling for us to get is dion jordan, probably a mid first rounder which could give us excellent value in a trade. Also would be happy with Tank Carradine, should we get a 2nd round pick.
Dave Amerson is probably my favorite prospect in this draft... haven't seen a DB that dynamic since Pat Peterson or Eric Berry. Not sure where he'll go but if we got him in the 2nd it'd be a steal.
My Ideal Off-season(significant moves only):
Trade down from pick #4-6 to pick #18-20+2nd rounder+2014 2nd rounder.
1st round - Dion Jordan DE/OLB
2nd round - Dave Amerson CB/FS
3rd round - Andre Ellington RB
After that i kinda stop watching...
F.A. signings:
WR Dwayne Bowe
CB Leodis McKelvin (always thought he had a ton of potential just misfortune of playing for buffalo)
NT Terrance Knighton
RB Felix Jones (maybe being back with DMAC will help both of them)
Last: Trade Tommy Kelly to Carolina for MLB Jon Beason and a mid round pick. Kelly is actually somewhat highly regarded around the league, Beason has been injury plagued lately and Carolina has already found his replacement. Plus we have depth at DL and Kelly's not worth his contract to us.
Let me know if this is too much like a madden off-season lol. |
