[QUOTE="sschind, post: 720301, member: 10247"] IMO the biggest mistake so far was not replacing Sam Shields. Going into last season we had a pretty good idea that he was going to be one of our starting CBs this year as he was still under contract. His leaving was somewhat unexpected and while I can forgive, to an extent, not replacing him during the season I don't know why Ted didn't use the money gained from losing him for replacing him. The prospect of Randal and/or Rollins patrolling one half the field while a player of Sams caliber handled the other side would be a lot less scary. Now its possible that if they would have used that money to sign one of the top FA corners they would not have signed Martellus Bennett and he certainly was an upgrade at TE but I made the analogy before and I'll make it again. If you total your truck and the insurance company writes you a check for $30,000 it might not be a bad idea to spend that $30,000 replacing the truck. You could spend half of it on a replacement truck and the other half on a better boat but if the new truck can't pull the new boat you've lost ground in both areas. [/QUOTE]
