I recognize that this team needs to put money aside to give Vick and Jackson their deals.
But let's be real: they've got the resources to add good veterans at two key spots: offensive line and linebacker. They better get off their asses and do something at these two spots.
Yesterday at practice Casey Matthews was running as the first-team MLB. That's not going to cut it for a team with legitimate aspirations. I'm reading about interest cooling in guys like Tulloch or Nick Barnett. They have to bring in a good veteran linebacker, IMO.
And yesterday with Justice out and Watkins not signed, the first team OL looked like the same mess as last year. Dunlop at RT, McGlynn starting inside. Can we really count on Jamaal Jackson? I have no comfort at all that Justice will be ready at the start of the year.
This team saved A BUNDLE by trading for DRC instead of signing Joseph or Nnamdi. They saved A BUNDLE by signing Babin over a guy like Edwards. Let's put those savings to work.
