What we need

OK, I for one am not going to let this get me too down. I figured looking at the schedule, we could do 4-2 or 3-3 after 6 games. That would give us a positive going into the last 10 games, all of which figure to be tough. We have SF next week and if we aren't 4-2 by the end of next Sunday, then maybe we don't deserve to go to the playoffs.

However, what are your opinions on what we need now and in the draft?

I think:
Now - We need Arrington to suck it up, do as the coach wants and contribute. Holdman can't cut it as a starter. We also need our secondary to get healthy, or pick up another CB - I like Jimoh's attitude and commitment, but we can't rely on him like we can Springs. We need pass rush from somewhere. If it's not Arrington, then we have to see if we can change something on the DL - is there anyone in FA or possibly available in a trade?

Draft - regardless of this years results, we need upgrades at DE, LT, LG and LB. I just can't see Samuels and Dockery anchoring the left side of the line much longer. Maybe a better LG will improve Samuels? We must look for 2 pass rush specialists in the draft, 1 won't be enough. I also think we need a stand out MLB and, assuming Arrington is gone, a replacement WLB.

Your thoughts?
