[QUOTE="Croak, post: 305051, member: 2367"] At TE we are stocked. But a play for L.J. Smith of the Ravens wouldn't have been too expensive. In the Secondary - Frank Walker is another possibility we could have dealt with the Ravens on the cheap or Keiwan Ratliff of the Bengals. At Safety Michael Lewis of the 49ers or Antoine Harris of the Falcons, but he may have cost a lower upper level pick, maybe round 4. LB - Abdul Hodge, Chase Blackburn, Bobby Carpenter, and Rashad Jeanty would be a real good inexpensive pickup. The great thing about picking up defensive players is that it doesn't take long to fit right in. Most guys can adapt much more quickly to a defense than an offense. Early on when we saw we were having injuries on the OL we could have gone for Zach Streif at the ticket price of $1.7 million. But it quickly became too late to think of adding to the offensive line. These are just a few guys that I know about as a fan without a full staff of scouts, etc. Imagine what might be out there with a professional scouting report.Ted Thompson is paid the big bucks to know a whole lot more about available free agents than I am. Yet there are a number of available serviceable guys, who are better than our practice squad, I just listed. [/QUOTE]
