I may get bashed for this but this is what I think we should do this offseason:

1. Sign TO to a short term deal. It would be in his best interest to prove he isn't a loudmouth and that he can be a team player. He would be auditioning for a big contract next year. Who knows, maybe Nick Saban can control him.

2. Trade Booker, Madison, our 2nd, and the 16th pick to someone in the Top 3 and draft Vince Young.

3. Aquire some solid O-Lineman. This line is an overachieving line, imagine what Houck could do with some real talent.

4. Find a good DB. Will Poole and Travis Daniels make up a nice pair at CB, and I like what Schulters did this season, even though he slipped and got burned a few times this season while covering TE's
 
I like your plan except for trading up for Lienart or Cutler. Young will have a long way to go before his mechanics are ready.
 
- Trade up to pick up Cutler at all costs (which probably means trading Ricky)
- Sign T.O. (if not, explore signing Antwaan Randle El who would be a great weapon in Mularkey's gadjet play offense)
- Sign OL Steve Hutchinson from Seattle who is set to become an UFA
- If you can't trade up, keep Ricky Williams
- Make sure you wear the 1973 throwbacks on thanksgiving day and wear the orange uni's atleast once next season
- sign atleast one big name free agent (whether that is T.O., Ty Law, etc...)

True, I'll add this years 2nd rounder. If not than sit at 16 and grab Jimmy Williams.

Looks like we'll be sitting where we are at. To acquire 1 of the top 3 picks will be major major fire power. It would be nice to throw all our old, past there prime players to move up, but this isn't madden, and personally i would rather stay away from a top 5 pick, if anything involivng moving up, move up around 8-10 and draft Cutler.

Why would you trade so much for an unproven QB? I know he was awsome in the Rose Bowl, but come on i like the guy but its too much to give up.I also know we need a QB, i understand that, but we can trade someone else for a QB. You just never know if Vince Young is going to be the next Ki-Ja-Carter (former #1 overall pick) and he sucked in the NFL.You just never know.

Marty Booker is useless if we get TO, Madison is on the decline, and we're only really loosing a 1 draft pick (2nd rounder).
 
People are always so quick to throw out Draft Trade Scenarios (DTS) without any real understanding of value. They don't ackowledge: 1) that trades involving more than 1 player and a pick are RARE, 2) that salary cap and age are concerns they don't consider, 3) that there is a huge premium on the top 3 picks that is nearly insurmountable, and 4) that no one wants our trash.

According to the chart, going from pick 16 to pick 2 will take 1,600 "points." What's this mean?

Our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th would NOT be enough (I know we don't have all those picks, just making a point).

TWO pick 16s would not be enough.

Our #16 and THREE SECOND ROUND PICKS would not be enough.

Our #16 and PICKS #21 and #22 would not be enough

What's this mean?

Sam Madison's not worth a second rounder. Neither is Booker. Even if they both were (which again, they aren't), it's still not even close. Even if they were both first rounders... still not enough.

This doesn't even count how good this draft is at the top.
 
This draft is just as well-balanced at the bottom as well.

The elite prospects are as follows Bush, Leinart, Young, D'Brickshaw, Williams (DE), and Hawk at this point.

Hard to argue with that logic, but I trust Saban in whatever he wants to do, you never know, he he may suprise everyone

Don't have enough money to sign TO or Randle El and Steve Hutchinson but I do agree that Randle El could be a possibility with Murlarkey as OC.
