Anybody ever have these crazy ideas concerning the offseason and what moves we should make, but you don't mention them because you don't want to sound stupid? Well I got one...
Being as how I've been preaching on how we can't neglect our Defense or it will go down hill, here's an alternate plan I came up with that would be cool.
Let Sammy Knight and Brock Marion go seeing as how their both old and expensive. Re-sign Freeman because I think he will be a solid safety for us for 3-4 years. Tender Ogun for a 1st and 3rd rounder and hope someone signs him. Then Trade off next years 1st rounder for Henson and sign Brunell (assuming he becomes FA). Sign FA's Dennis Northcutt (WR) and Dhani Jones (OLB).
Now, here's the cool part, trade our two 1st rounders up as high as we can and draft Saftey Shawn Taylor! Why? Because we'd already have our QB and WR issues resolved, and I think Taylor is the kind of player that just makes Defenses better than what they are. Then we could use our 3rd rounders to fill any needs.
I just would love to have this guy. He's gonna be Great and we deperately need some youth on our Defense. Think about it, our Defense is our Bread and Butter, they're who has made us competetive for the last 5 years. Our offense doesn't need to be a juggernaut like St. Louis or Indy. Two or Three more TD's last season and we would have been in the playoffs.
