Do we REALLY need a star DE?

Or do we already have one....

Phillip Daniels has been playing amazing football. I know he has injury problems, but this guy could end up being a steal. When he has Salav'ae and Griffin in there to push the middle he gets amazing push off the edge. Even Wynn had a big game today@!

I'd like to see us use a draft pick on a young guy. Maybe look for an up-and-coming guy in free agency.

really who doesn't? Gettting one will do so much more for our d, but really, we need a compliment to moss ...

It looks like to really get into that elite level of play we could use a young stud DE, another DT (Nobles replacement) and a 2nd WR. Thats it. Should be easy to fill those needs between seasons. Then again, we seem to be rolling without these things...

It's obvious when our DT's are healthy this is a much more effective defensive line.

I think DE should still be a priority though.

we need someone who can flat out rush the passer.doesnt much matter who the #2 receiver is because who ever the qback is they only look to moss(which is a good thing)

While I've been impressed with the pressure created by not only daniels but Clemons as well, I'd like the skins to still pick up another young pass rushing specialist and if Taylor Jacobs doesn't start to play, it's time to cut him lose and look for someone with a good combination of speed and size to compliment Moss. I don't know if anyone else watched a bit of the Hawaii Bowl last night but Central Florida has this Marshall kid who looks like he could be a pretty special talent and it'd be kewl if we could get someone like him with our 2nd round pick.

I'm not ready to write off Patten just yet for next year.

He never really had the chance to shine this year. Early in the year as an offense we were obsessed with Moss for obvious reasons... but I think Patten would have played a bigger role as the season went on. I think he can still be a solid #2.

im ready to write him off knee surgeries after 30 for a reciever never turns out well.

I dont understand the pure hate for Taylor Jacobs. In the Dallas game, he often had his man beat but Brunell never looks his way. I'd like to see him at least get an attempt at catching the ball till we say he cant cut it.
