re: Marching Orders... Interesting Points

Well in defense of the current roster and '09 season I believe we can start to seriously build through the draft, focusing on trench talent, w/o cutting a huge swath of vets out from under the franchise. Guys like JT, Springs and sadly Marcus who cost an arm and a leg but contribute sporadically can be booted at huge cost and replaced w/ great young talent (in the case of Hall) or for value players who will fill in nicely. Hell, we can even part w/ a guy or two via trade this year to get another high pick and get the youth movement in full swing. Also would say this article, while dead-on about the weakness of the o-line, is a little preemptive in that Thomas/Kelly/Davis could be offensive monsters for us (the article sort of implies we aren't doing much of anything to invest in youth.) The whole article has just one paragraph about those three players.
