How will we survive without Smooty??

I'll tell you how....

Smoot's departure will now open the door for the arrival of "THE ADE" as the starting CB opposite Springroll. THE ADE has been patiently biding his time on the special teams squad - and now his opportunity is here! I'm calling it - today - THE ADE will be large and in-charge this season....

Barrow will be healthy this year and be the MLB we expected him to be last year - Pierce, although a consensus great fill-in last year, will not be missed.

Rod "drop it like it's hot" Gardner will be traded away for a 2nd rounder. We'll grab Mike Williams with the #9, and pick up a DE like Marcus Spears with the second rounder. Not too bad.

I think the offense will be dramatically improved with the new (healthly) o-line. I think Patton will be the 4th best WR on our team, just like he was with the Pats -but I welcome him nonetheless.

I like Ramsey, but he better not screw up this season. He's well beyond the "learning years" - he needs to perform!!

How nice it must be to view the world through Ade-colored glasses...

Re: How will we survive without Smooty??

I said last night in the chatroom that Ade is being groomed for the starting job. I don't think he'll be a day one starter, but don't be suprised to see him in the starting lineup at some point soon.

Rod Gardner couldn't catch a cold. I think we'll get a 3rd rounder at best for him.

...and I doubt that Ade "uh-oh" Jimoh will start.

I like your thinking. I think both Wilds and Harris give us solid options as well. With Williams defensive scheme the focus is on the system not just the players. I still cannot figure out what is up with Mike Barrows? We sure could use this guy if he is healthy.

Why is he still around? Remember that he took the roster spot of a decent CB last year (Rashad Bauman).

My thinking is that he fits the mold for a Gregg Williams CB: he's big and physical. I think that with a little bit of his coverage skills refinement, he can be a darn good CB in this defense. He may be the Antonio Pierce of the secondary.

Wilds must be promising if Greg Williams likes him. We'll still need a top flight CB out of this years draft though in order to stay young and have guys ready when Harris and Springs are closer to the end of thier careers.

I totally agree! A nice haircut and a manicure and THE ADE will have the looks to go with the talent - the complete package. I've always thought that he could use a little grooming....
