[QUOTE="GreenBaySlacker, post: 605429, member: 9780"] We have a roster that is overflowing with talent. At some point, quantity over quality has to be reevaluated. Building a team like we did for nearly a decade, quantity is a must, with low percentage odds of finding keepers. But now we need to concentrate on roster managment, by replacing the couple aging free agents every year, and add one or two difference maker type picks. rather than draft 10 to find 5 keepers, only to have to release good players to make room... Maybe instead of trading back, like we have done fairly often in Thompsons tenure. Maybe we trade the farm on a destructive future NT in Danny Shelton? With both Raji and Guion on short deals, it could be a great move for next year? Ihave never waivered on the theory that 1000 pounds of D-linemen crammed into 3 roster spots. 3 guys who demand the double team. Thats what a 3-4 needs. Pocket pushers. Shelton, Raji, Daniels is a fine example of what I want. Big strong and suprisingly fast and agile guys up front. Let the 8 guys behind them sting like a bee. When we had no D-line besides Raji who was triple teamed. We had good LBs and secondary. Opposite of what I wanted. So drafting a LB and CB doesnt fix anything, if we arent better than average up front. If we have a dominant front 3 with dominant rotation including an angry Guion. We can do well with the LBs and CBs we have now. All in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
