Biggest needs on the team?

I noticed QB wasn't one of your options, only backup QB. Is this because you are assuming that Bradford is the answer or because you don't want to bring up the topic? Just asking.

I don't want a qb in this draft unless they pick up more picks by trading down! Too much depth needed at other positions! IMO.

A good backup Qb is a luxury that most teams can't afford. If we have extra picks or wait until the 6th round or so then I'm OK with drafting one. I'm getting tired of trying to find a quality QB among the leftovers in the UDFA class.

If I group some things I think we're onto something...

Offensive line: 7
Defensive Backfield: 14

Why don't you just resign Finnegan to a lesser deal?

I would not could not should not ever ever ever permit such a foul thought to enter into my paramecium one brain cell. First chance I got I am CUTTING complete utter ties with that so called CB from my team along with his monstrous contract mandates!

I completely didn't get that either but I didn't want to be the one who looked like an idiot. Thanks for taking my place. :roflmao:

I can understand why you guys want a RT (Matthews would be nice), but I think Barksdale is a decent starter if we don't seek a RT in the draft/FA. Whereas we are much weaker at other positions with the players we have now. Is Barksdale upgradable? Sure, but I'd rather add 2 new guards, a nickelback, and a FS before worrying about RT. Imo RT is one of the positions we could put off for a year, because our priorities need to be directed elsewhere. Just my opinion.

I would like to discuss a little more in detail on your post. I never said anything about your "add 2 new guards, a nickelback, and a FS" statement. I am in agreement with you 100% on these four.

Your proclaimed need of two OG's over the ORT has merit...If Snead does what we think & release the older high cap cost interior OL'ers Wells/Dahl/Williams then the entire interior will be gone. Rams do have Five current active interior OL'ers Tim Barnes/Shelley Smith/Barrett Jones/Mike Persons & Brandon Washington all under contract in 2014 & ready to step up. We have Zero in tackles.

Many drafted OT's can easily move inside & start (Saffold & Williams) now you see why I want & why I see the OT as a bigger need than two OG's.

Was it the SF game that makes you say this, or something else? We do need a veteran presence in the defensive backfield after all.

I voted cornerback/nickekback. It looked like we had some good depth here pre-season but Finnegan's gone - Jenkins regressing?? (thought he played better today) but its the most easily upgradeable position that I can see. Failing that - SS.

In 3rd place - guard if Saffold/Dahl aren't resigning.
