If it clicks, Campbell will get a REAL extension during or after the season. All things considered, our offense should be dramatically better in 2010 (when compared to 2009) in the second scenario. even moreso if we can trade some guys and pick up some additional picks in rounds 3 and 4. this is a very very deep draft.

I would consider this a good way to go. If we can get Okung and another OT or someone like Pouncey, who can play center or guard in the second, I think we've made a significant upgrade to our line and gained some youth. Fill in some more with a couple of FA acquisitions and JC has better protection this year. Hardesty would be an upgrade and would be a good fit for this offense. Sign a couple of quality "D" players in free agency and I would consider this about as successful an off-season as could be reasonably expected.
