    yep, after the 2007 bad draft, seems to be hitting stride again, i'd also add Webb, who as a rook, is being asked a lot, think like Big CAT, who also struggled his first year, then became a fixture, same can happen with webb, as with another offseason of training with Tice.

    really like Wright and his hitting, can do w/o the brain fart had agaisnt NE, on the last play of first 1/2,but that is a rookie learning experience, just keeping fingers crossed he's not another Brown on the injury side, and can stay healthy in 2011, Manning IMO, has earned a new contract in 2010, and Chris harris, while like him as a person, just can't cover deep anymore, like harris for depth next year in case of an injury( can play both positions and knows "D"), but we need Wrights Speed and coverage going forward- and wooton always high on him- so like seeing it finally paying off

    I think that we need to revamp our secondary a little bit as well. Maybe a shutdown corner, or if indeed Chris Harris is losing steam, get someone who can cover deep. Our defensive line is not a problem, but we need to address the secondary because we're giving up entirely too many yards through the air this season.

    yep, think we go Cb in first( tillman getting older, bowman dissapointing in 2010), O-line in 2nd( and maybe F/A) and Wr or oline in 3rd and oline in 4th again or WR if didn't in 3rd. At safety fine with Wright/manning and harris as the 3rd at both poistions, Like Dj moore at nickle, but because of his small size, not sure a legit CB full time, so rather see him just become one of the better Nickles and remain there. We could also pick up a WR in F/A as will be alot of RFA's from last year that are F/A, have to see how that shakes out, the "big" move, that not sure bears would risk is Vincent jackson, who will be a F/A, but has the 2 strikes against him- so not sure we make a move and pay a big contract to a guy one mistake froma year long suspension, but becuase will be available, needs to be tossed out there- a BETTR CHOICE if going F/A is Sidney Rice who also will be a F/A, and with the vikes mess, he can be had also

    Well, with Manning probobly leaving after this season and Bowman being on pace for 1 int, you're probobly right, but we do have Steltz, so there's that.

    God, I hope Daniel Manning doesn't leave. He's a good solid player.

    Two years ago if someone had said that I would have kicked them in the face. Crazy how he's turned out to be a solid player.

    I think that's a good idea, but I would proceed with caution due to his injury-plagued season. That would save us a lot of trouble in the draft of coming up with a WR. I think I would also look for a OLmen in free agency as well. What do you think?
