For the success of this team, before a new QB is installed, the team around that new QB needs to be solid. Our D does seem much better than it has in years(on paper at least). Besides the D we need a solid O-Line and running game before we hand it over to the new QB. The running game will go nowhere without a quality OL. Granted our new rookie guards may be great by the time the season starts but this would be the exception. More than likely they will continue to get better as the season continues. I can handle our WR group, and I can handle our RB group, but to have the OL we currently have with the cap room we had/have, is the major negative I have with TT. I think that he has drafted well but in regards to not getting a quality kicker and/or guard during the beginning of FA is inexcusable, or until the OL gels.If our OL does not improve over last year, and Favre retires after this upcoming year, the new QB will be in trouble due to all the pressure they will face...that is, no play action because the run game's weak, no pass protection etc...I certainly hope that we can get some other mid level guard by training camp, because to rest our laurels on the rookies is a major gamble, way more that paying a bit to get a solid FA.</p></blockquote><p></p>
