[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1031897, member: 17953"] I favor Barton early because the guy can be plugged into four of the five positions on our O Line on day one from what I've seen of him. It would take a bit of time for him to make it at LT, but I think he could do that too, with some work. But, plug and play is the key. I like McKinney via free agency at safety. But, Johnson as the free safety just ain't gonna cut it. That puts that fill at a high priority, and quite honestly, someone who you feel can start immediately, and will take on field coaching from McKinney. Stokes, Valentine, Alexander, and Ballentine is a fairly decent mix, and the priority is lower than safety. Walker and McDuffie is all we have at the two ILB positions, behind them, not much, and quite honestly, I'm not really impressed with McDuffie, so we'll have to see how he does. I think he'd make a decent back up, but a starter? Probably not. We have nobody as a back up at center, or left guard at this point. If we slide anyone over to play the position, it would be a sub, like Tenuta or Newman. That makes me want to have a couple shots of tequila. I see that as disaster, because I even question them in their right side back up roles. Plus, we're talking Myers at center. Adequate, but we need to find someone for the future to be honest. Someone better. At left guard, we have our best offensive lineman, in Elgton Jenkins, who we need to see stay healthy. He's going to be the key to this line, no matter what. At left tackle, we're all hoping that Rasheed Walker can handle the job. Behind him is Caleb Jones, and he doesn't impress me one bit to be honest. In fact, I'm not totally sold on Walker being a long term fix on that side. If a can't miss LT is still on the board at any time during our first 3 picks, the Packers will go for him I'd imagine. Another point is, that if we do have Barton, and we find that Walker can't cut it at LT, Jenkins could be moved over there to hold down the fort, even though he'd not be in his best position, but Barton could probably fill his slot at LG. Anyhow, that's some of the "what if's?," I keep running through my mind about how the draft will go. Since I don't have the coaches or Gutey's ear, it's hard to understand their thinking at this point. Anyhow, just my opinions. [/QUOTE]
