[Ruhskins]

It would make me feel better if they would go ahead and sign Elton Brown. He's rated a bit higher than Heyer by Scouts, and AZ's line did a good job protecting Warner last year. Let's not forget that these players are the ones that make the decision of going with one team, and one thing that I don't want is for our team to overpay average players (remember Archuleta?), so if Ray Willis didn't want to come here, well that was his decision.

At #13, we should be able to pick up an o-lineman or LB that can start right away. The team should consider bringing Marcus Washington at a cheaper price, if they do this they can add a serviceable player or two at DE or LB. Let's not forget a couple of things:

- People knock on Heyer's talent, however he has another year of being in the Bugel system and will go through another training camp. We can only hope that he can improve and should be given the chance of compete for a starting spot.

- The same goes for Rineheart, whatever his problem was he needs to fix that and come up big in 2009. The FO has mentioned Devin Clark, well let's hope we have a diamond in the rough there a la Horton.

- We have young players at DE in Jackson, Buzbee, and Jackson who have a year under their belt, that year of experience has got to be worth something.

- And finally, we need luck on our side and hope that the likes of Samuels and Thomas do not fall to injury.

Right now it is too early (and not smart) to write off this team. We don't know what's going to happen in the draft, one team's mistake (above us) can be our fortune. I don't think anyone can predict that this team is set for failure because you never know what will happen.
