So who are your guys we need most on this team?

Mine are as follows...

CB Morris Claiborne (He reminds me a lot of Darrelle Revis with how good his coverage skills are. With us likely going away from Tampa 2, we will need good man coverage corners, and pairing him with Powers will drastically improve our secondary)

QB Andrew Luck (Only if Peyton is not healthy for next year of course)

OG David DeCastro (I still think we are one piece away from making this OL complete. A true dominant OG is needed)

NT Brandon Thompson or NT Dontari Poe (We still need a good NT to make our DL dominant. Having a true NT will free up Nevis, and our DEs)

S Mark Barron or Ray Ray Armstrong (We still need that SS to pair with Bethea)

Claiborune and I would double down with the Harris boy from Oregon. who is also a top punt returner...

A pick of Luck would be a waste because there's no chance Manning will be traded or will go free agent..or will not attempt to play in 2012....but a 2nd round pick of Kellen Moore would be shrewd..

I'd led the O-line go if we could get Thompson...a consistent run stopper.

DT and DB are our primary needs

I agree with it all

QB Andrew Luck (Only if Peyton is not healthy for next year of course)

OG David DeCastro (I still think we are one piece away from making this OL complete. A true dominant OG is needed)

CB Morris Claiborne (He reminds me a lot of Darrelle Revis with how good his coverage skills are. With us likely going away from Tampa 2, we will need good man coverage corners, and pairing him with Powers will drastically improve our secondary) Agreed

QB Andrew Luck (Only if Peyton is not healthy for next year of course) <--added emphasis lol

OG David DeCastro (I still think we are one piece away from making this OL complete. A true dominant OG is needed) I agree about drafting a dominant OG but DeCastro is likely a first round pick and there are other dominant OGs that will go a little later. Either Keleche Osemele or Lucas Nix in the 2nd round or Kevin Zeilter in the 3rd round would be my pick for OG

NT Brandon Thompson or NT Dontari Poe (We still need a good NT to make our DL dominant. Having a true NT will free up Nevis, and our DEs). I agree and would love to have Thompson or Poe. Many also believe Jerel Worthy could play NT in our defense and if the powers that be agree then he or Josh Chapman are a couple others to consider

S Mark Barron or Ray Ray Armstrong (We still need that SS to pair with Bethea) TJ McDonald, Harrison Smith or Robert Lester are a few others that could be considered as well

My comments in blue. I also think we need to add to the LB core. I'm assuming Bracket most likely won't be back and I don't really have an opinion yet on whether I think Sims will be back. I'm not sold on the current starters but aside from that we have little depth. Personally I'd like to bring in an early round monster MLB in either Luke Kuechly or Manti Te'o and then, if we make enough deals and have multiple additional picks then I'd like to spend another pick in the 4th round on Nigel Bradham OLB.

      ALL MLB 2018 Astros Repeat ?

      Cubs game time pushed back to 850pm due to Rain Delay. Brewers and Cards are currently 0-0 in the Bottom of the 1st. I would like to see the Cards win 2 of 3, that would give the Brewers 2 more losses and still give us breathing room from the Cards giving them 1 more loss.

      I take it as a confidence that the new staff will help the offense be more effective, especially late in games. Not necessarily a knock against Pagano, but definitely a knock on the offensive staff.   Reich still has a lot to prove. I'm hopeful, but we'll see what he does.

      That is good news.  Recovery now much shorter/easier.

      I don't think you'll be proven wrong Monday, or at any point this year. I think the defense will be pretty ragged this season, unless a really good pass rush and a 3 tech emerge.   As for the defense in the first preseason game, I disliked some of the alignments. A few times outside corners were 10+ yards off the line of scrimmage, which I hate. I hope we don't see much more of that, especially outside of 3rd and long. But the players in the secondary won't get many chances to make plays unless the front can get stops on early downs and get pressure in passing situations.    I don't have a problem with the scheme. It's not my favorite; I'd prefer a man based coverage philosophy, but zone has it's advantages. On the field, it's more effective at defending mobile QBs; for team building, it's less expensive. The key -- as it is with almost everything -- will be good drafting and good player development. Find good players, and help them succeed. If they don't do one or both of those well, it doesn't matter what scheme they run. But I don't think the scheme itself is flawed. It's had plenty of success, even in the modern NFL.
