Bet he takes a hometown discount and signs with Carolina next week.

Here's another one. ...

I wonder what the Torry Holt price tag is going to be? Probably pretty high.

Better yes, complete...no, we run a 4-3 not a 3-4. And there has to be another DE in there somewhere.

No because we just replaced a Good LG with another good LG.

The holes that we have at OT, DE, OLB, RG, and if you want to get nit picky Punter and Kicker.

I got it, thanks for the insight. I am going back to being a dumbass now! Dee DEE DEE!
Maybe you don't get it. As of March 13th, you're 100% correct, we are short one DE and one LB. The point is, are we starting training camp tomorrow? Has the window closed on us being able to secure a DE & LB thru the draft or FA?

If you don't think that Dockery is an upgrade over Kendall I guess we're watching different football. Dockery is much more athletic, much younger and a much better drive blocker.

We don't have a hole at OT, some would like an upgrade. We don't have a hole at RG, some would like an upgrade. We don't have a hole at K, some would like an upgrade. We just signed a veteran punter a week ago. Is he a pro bowler? Nope, but he's been effective kicking in the division before.

As I asked before, who would you have brilliantly filled all of our holes with this offseason?

OK - lets say the Skins get the same type of production out of Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly this year as they did last. At some point potential has to turn into production and if these two have similar seasons like they did last year how much longer do you keep them on the roster? I know many say WR's need a couple of seasons to develop so I am curious as to how long do the Skins wait for them to produce - 2 years, 3 years, 4 or more?

why have the Skins kept Antwaan Randle-El for so long???..he runs in circles on Punt Returns and can't seperate from anyone as a receiver..you advocate cutting receivers..cut one that has no game at all before you cut two second year players because of the lack of nothing better to discuss

I keep them 2 years at the most. They need to learn the speed of the game, and being in the same offense (hopefully) will help them. With that said, both will have to stay healthy to contribute (especially Kelly). I expect big things from them this year, which is why I don't get why people want a declining Holt, when they have only been on the team for a year.

you don't

FOREVER See they are going to be the second coming. No one wants to explore looking into picking up a Vet in FA cause some want these two to shine. but they have no plan in case they don't.

Don't get me wrong I think both will be special in this league and will do great things. My only concern is I don't think it will be with us. Why? cause some are already wanting to can them, others think this yr they will break it out and my doubts are more towards the WR's coach. He has done nothing with WR's since he's been here but for some reason this yr he's going to decide to step it up and develope two WR's. Heck in CJ's first yr he had 28 REC, for 329 yrds, and 1 TD. In his second yr he did better he got 69 REC, for 1,116 yrds, and 5 TD's and after those two yrs he has had no less then 10 TD's a yr.

T.O. in his first yr had 35 REC, for 520 yrds, and 4 TD's. In his second yr he had 60 REC, for 936 yrds, and 8 TD's. Since then he has had only two yrs of less then 1,000 yrds.

I'll eat crow if both Kelly and Thomas step out and get 5 TD's a piece, but I doubt it. They hardley played their first yr had maybe one catch or two and very little yardage. I sorta count this yr as their first yr if you are going to measure them up against the best. So expect to see any where from 20 to 40 REC, about 400yrds a piece if that and perhaps 2-4 TD's each.

If we get the same production (ZERO) out of Thomas and Kelly, I really believe that Cerrato has to go. Everyone knew that we needed help on both lines, and Vinny insisted on drafting 3 receivers in the 2nd round. What I found even more troubling was their showing up out of shape for training camp. Time for these boys to grow up and start approaching football as a profession instead of a game.
