Draft, FAs, etc

Unfortunately, that would pummel our cap. We don't need another Santana Moss. I'll be happy with Patten's return and another wideout as capable as Patten (either via the draft, trade, or free agency).

I say we trade Lavar to the chargers, for WR Vincent Jackson, he didn't play that much this year but it's a deal I would make in a heartbeat.

wynn is expensive, daniels is getting older, i'd say a DE even if he comes in as a #3 with potential is a must, as is at least one but probably two WRs (one FA, one for depth in the draft). I'd still vote for tapp and S moss myself :P

after WR and DE i'd get 1 guy that can start at G/T and at least one backup and a young CB that can be our #3. a DT #2/#3 is also a must.

if there's one expensive guy worth getting this offseason it'd be him (or maybe mathis). I'd love that, but i think we're looking at the 2nd tier (no TO, no wayne) which will be plentiful and somewhat cheap. P warrick, P Price, K robinson (Very talented, fast, WANTS to come here specifically, alcoholic), B Lloyd (talented but inconsistant), D givens, R Caldwell (had good numbers before he got injured), K Mccardell (old), etc.

I'd take a flyer on K robinson and R Caldwell and also eye S Moss if he falls to us in the 3rd round. All would be very cheap and only 1 of the 4 (including patten) would have to actually step up. Denver did that with CBs and DL this season and spray and pray actually seems to work well with 2nd tier talent.

At DE, kampman seems like the price/performance guy and there's decent depth at DE/DT in the draft we'll be able to pick from in the 2nd. It'd be alright to get a guy that'd take a bit to break in since wynn will probably be back (even though i think he makes too much for his production, the coaches seem to really like him in the lockerroom).

OL i know much less about... 2 bucs starters are FAs and both would be great backups (stussie/mahan), but i don't know if either would agree to that (or how practical it is to pay that much to a backup).
