LB:
OK forget about Dan Morgan, he is an excellent LB but he has proven he cannot stay on the field. Zach Thomas probable won't be here although we do have a good repore with Rosenhaus. There is a better LB who was released yesterday. Derek Smith ,MLB from San Fransisco. He is a tackling machine. A younger Zach Thomas, a healthier Dan Morgan. He is one of the unheralded players at his position, who goes out every week and plays his heart out. He was a cap casualty to an extent because SF owed him 4 million or so. Plus he played out of position last year and perhaps since Mike Nolan and Singletary have been there with the 3-4. He IMO is a 4-3 MLB that is where he excelled and would be an excellent addition without breaking the bank and allowing us to be active in FA.
TE:
Bubba Franks...the rotowire talks about him like he is beyond his years and too long in the tooth. He is a touchdown catching machine. I wonder if this was one of Russ Balls first big cap cutting moves. It would be nice to have someone reliable, besides Colston at the goalline. He can make that tough catch also. Not to mention if he can catch those ROCKET /LASER passes from Favre he should have no problem with Drew's passes.
Ben Troupe....amazing athete for his size. Single handedly beat LSU when e played for Florida. He Basically became expendable with the drafting of Bo Scaife. Scaife was a teammate of Vince Young at Texas and has become his favorite TE.
CB:
I like DeAngelo Hall and I think if we wait out the situation we might have a shot at him. Samual will be drastically overpaid and he is not as good as Nate Clements. N.A. the Oakland Cb was my favorite but has been given the Exclusive Right Franchise tag which means you cannot even talk to him. I do not think we can fill this spot through the draft. We have had terrible luck drafting CB's in the past. I do not like the prospects this year as much as some years past. Somebody has to be better than Jason David. Finding him should not be too hard.
In Closing, I am concerned with the aftershock of losing Russ Ball. HE was the man doing the deals and structuring everything. Loomis got alot of the credit for this. Agents also may not be as familiar with the current person doing Russ' old job.
