Cardinals Future GM
So far, the Cards have only resigned their own players and lost LD. A net loss for free agency. Here's what would fix it for me.
OT - Move Wells to LT as he's played their before and will now often get a TE to help block.
At RT bring in Colombo as the starter. For insurance, sign a 2nd one from this list : J Black, Pettigout, K Walker or Gandy. Strickly for depth.
Then one of the 3 picks from the 1st day in the draft must be OT so the team has someone in training for 2008.
TE - Get a really good blocking TE. Kelly would work, so would D. Graham. (E. Johnson would not work).
FB - Need a solid run blocking fullback who can pickup the blitz.
Getting those 4 players (2 OTs, TE, & FB) should give the Cards a reasonable chance of running and keep Matt alive at QB.
FS - get a fast FS who can cover. Possible convert a nickel FA CB to FS just to have more speed.
LB - Need someone. Only have 2 starters on the team.
OC - Right now, the Cards only have 1 center on the team. It would be nice if they brought in someone better than Lechy so Lechy become depth and the Cards improve, but at least a body is need in FA.
If they did this, the they should be reasonable and be able to draft for the most part, BPA (must have a day 1 OT).
There are still plenty of players out there in FA to complete this plan, let's see if Graves can do it. Please post and tell me how my plan sounds.
