I could'nt help to not see any threads relating to anything realy interesting about the currant activities envolved with the team's players and F/A following this draft.

So now we know who's onboard. The question's I'm looking forward too, is the positions at hand and who is most likely to be our new starters!!

I figured if there is any news at all, especialy regarding how certain players are recovering from injuries.

Here we go I'm excited!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE OUR OFFENSE THIS YEAR.

I expect that by yrs end we will have 3 starters from the draft

I expect we're going to be in the top 10 in scoring offenses this year.

just for fun here is our starting lineup next year

WR marshal--pro bowler

OT Long--pro bowler

OG Incognito

C Grove

OG Thomas/Jerry

OT Carey

QB Henne

RB Brown

FB Polite-- pro bowler (should be)

TE Fasano

WR Hartline


DE Langford

NT Starks

DE Odrick

OLB Misi

ILB Crowder or new guy from SD

ILB Dansby--pro bowler

OLB Wake

CB Davis--possible pro bowler

SS Bell--pro bowler

FS ?? Culver/Clemons/Jones

CB Smith

nickle -- will allen

looks pretty solid to me!

Looks about right, but I think Ricky should start over Ronnie, particularly since Ronnie is coming off an injury. Oh, that adds one more Pro Bowler to the lineup as well!

Talk to me as to why you see this this way.

I heard a lot of talk last year about how well these guys Davis and Smith) were doing ... but always with the caveat "for a rookie"

At the same time we got torched big time in pass defense.

Do I think they'll be better yes, here's why:

1. Second year, more experience
2. Better rush and lb trqnslates to less time needed to cover

But pro-bowler? Splain me please.

Davis was really good as a rookie and has all of the physical skills to be a pro bowler. Correct me if I am wrong but I think there are at least 2 CBs named to the pro bowl. If he improves like I think (hope) he can, I'd say he's got a shot to be among the top 4 CBs in the AFC. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but I think he's got the goods.

I hope you're right, but I noted the entire year last year that people seemed to give the rookies a pass, and a bit more space than others.

I never felt comfortable on 3rd and long ... and that does not speak to good cover corners.

- Good for rookies yes!
- The bar is raised this year, and I hope they improve a lot!

I don't think Vonte is near Pro Bowl status. Vonte made a couple big plays for us last year but Sean Smith was a better overall player.

I also think there is a small chance Will Allen wins his job back and Vonte goes to being our nickle back.
