Or we could just try to find a Brown (the guy at Arizona) in about round 3 and just try to outscore everybody.

But we have to address the secondary and pass rush. Immediately.
I would go OT, DE, OT then CB to start this next draft if the right people fell. It is hard to predict because you hate to reach but we really need to replace Bell and Chandler. We just spent a second rounder on a DE and he has not really panned out yet. Man we have a lot of holes.
Ironically after arguing with you for 2 pages, I agree with this wholeheartedly . Just depends on whats available. Projected studs LTs don't fall very far these days. Hardy isn't coming back so we are going to need a pass rusher as well. (Charles Johnson might get cut as well)
We would have had to cut someone or send salary back to fit Harvin under the cap. Still wouldn't have hated the move. I think we could throw him in the slot and he could make things happen.

If we wanted someone like Harvin we could have just kept Smith here. We are in a bit of trouble because we likely need 2 pass rushers and 2 tackles. This is tough to do with a limited amount of picks. We will see what happens but I am not confident in who we have in charge. The fact that all the information that leaks out not from the team is super negative is not a good thing for our team.

His contract isn't guaranteed after this year if im not mistaken. He can be cut if need be
My bad. Was looking at someone else.
I doubt Seattle would trade him to a NFC division leader anyway
I don't support domestic violence. Thanks Miles

I really hate that for Godfrey because he was a hell of a safety pre-injury and he just looked so lost at CB. Hopefully someone picks him up and he's able to contribute for them.

You know how on the app you see a preview of the first post in a thread without opening it? It's always funny to see stuff like the "you suck because you aren't quincy miller" on the Taylor thread.

Re: Off Topic VI
we should have competitions for who gets more retweeted by Rick Bonnell during a span of a week, let's say. the guy will just retweet anything positive about him.
I would love to see him not noticing that he's being made fun of and if he would fall for it:
"Fantastic piece by @rick_bonnell on the Hornets signing Jason Maxiell."
"Great play-by-play tweeting by @rick_bonnell. Makes it being a Hornets fan so much easier."
".@rick_bonnell has raised a serious question. What's up with Hornets clock mgmt? Too many 24 violations."
