also Miami can't have any luxery picks this year like CJ Spiller, or another CB or anything. They have to fill needs cause the voids become HUGE next year.

Because next year contracts are up for...

-Thigpen and Pennington. So need a backup QB
-All 3 running backs are free agents, need to draft a RB in 2011
-Feguson and Solai hit the open market
-Punter and long snaper are free agents

You can't re-sign all of these guys. Most will leave. Leaving holes everywhere. So we MUST fill this years holes so next year we don't have so many holes its impossible to fill in one offseason

Right. You can't worry too much about depth until holes are filled at every starting position.

If we lose a player and their back-up at ANY position we are screwed eye rolling smiley

You can't live in fear like that or run a team that way

We don't have a quality FS on our roster. We have 1 Nose Tackle till Week 9. We have no quality OLB's or WR's.....and you are worried about the 3rd string RB eye rolling smiley

Menhenhal wasn't sitting behnid 2 starting caliabar RB's though

Plus how many RB/FB are going to stay active on a 53 man roster. You already have Ricky, Ronnie, Poliete, and Cobbs. On a gameday you are going to carry 5 RB/FB?? NO TEAM IN THEIR RIGHT MIND DOES THAT!!

Throw Lex Hilliard into the mix and now you want another RB for THIS YEAR??? Insane. Thankfuly it won't happen!

2 Starting RB's?? We don't know what Ricky or Ronnie will do this year.

We have Solai & mcDaniel that can plat NT. Getting a good pash rushing DE or OLB is a bigger need than NT

Polite is a fullback with limited short or blocking yardage usage.

The jury is still out on Cobbs & Hilliard


Cobbs & Ronnie coming off of injuries, Ricky post 30 although had a great year and may have 1-2 left because of a few off years and good herbs.

Cowboys drafted Tashard choice & Felix Jones. They might trade to move up to get Bryant 3 solid RB's is becoming a must due to injuries

Soliai has been extremely inconsistent throughout his career. If next season is his breakout year, then we'll be ok. If not...????

McDaniel only plays NT on obvious passing 3rd downs. He's 6'7", which is too tall for a full-time NT.

Why would the Cowboys give up more draft picks for a WR? They already gave up a 1st, 3rd and 6th picks for Roy Williams not to mention a 6/54/26 gtd contract....and they have Miles Austin and Patrick Crayton.

The only way that happens is if someone tenders Austin for 1st and 3rd picks anf they don't match it....but then they could just sign Brandon Marshall for one 1st rounder.

Not going to happen.

I think Brandon Marshall ends up in Dallas or NYJ.

Austin is great but after him they have nothing really. And they are another good WR away from being an offense that can compete with Minny and New Orleans
