I don't know, but I can't wait to see the Alexander/James matchup 2 times a year!

Oops. I forgot about that. Say we get our O-line to a mediocre level....

The O-line still needs a lot of work, and Seattle isn't exactly dog meat. But there's no doubt that our offense is now unsurpassed if not unequalled in its playmaking ability.

If Seattle signs Davis away from us you better believe they can stop Edge.:D

Oh yeah and what Shane said.

Edge is only a piece of the puzzle, mind you though it is one freakin huge piece.

Right now, our OL is the only thing that could possibly stop the Edge. Lets get some decent OL in here, and we'll be in business.

edgerrin is a big part of the puzzle, but you can't forget about boldin and fitz. this offense will be unstopable(barring injury) this season. the defense needs a little more work, but the offense should click and score.

We might have the best offense in the NFL this year. I do feel sorry for Rackers though. With Edge scoring touchdowns we won't need him to kick many field goals.:D

Sanders never had much of an OL. James WILL make the OL better by his presence. We'll also get Maewae and a few Rooks , I believe.

Both Browns on the line this yr. (one new one -Milford and one improved -Elton) should improve the run game as well

and now if we would just toss the rest of our FA money at Hutchenson and draft the top defensive player on the board at number 10. End of story.

LOL SHane I swear funny stuff thought the exact same thing right off the bat.
Our line is a joke to run behind and unless they produce like a line should this is wasted money. I still like the Signing!!

Picking up a free agent center would help the OL the most. I don't mind drafting one or two OL in the first or second round but I don't want to count on them starting this year.

Do you guys realize how much better our o-line became today? A great rb like JAmes makes better blockers out of every single linelan on this roster. He's a back that KNOWS how to run and KNOWS how to set up blocks.

We are not done either.

A RB doesnt automatically make your OL know how to block. Sorry not buying it.

True, but a running back like Edgerrin has a better chance of successfully taking on Sean Taylor for one yard. :)

We have a lot of young talent on this O-Line. Elton Brown is going in to his 2nd year and Step and Lecky are going in to there 3rd. We signed Brown yesterday and we have a good O-line coach now. Having a RB like james will improve your O-line

So by our players having another year, new coach, new Guard who is a run blocker, and one of the top 5 backs in the NFL. Our run Game just got a lot better
