Official Offseason thread.. Needs, Draft, FA, Etc...

It looks like Minnifield underwent microfracture surgery....NOT GOOD for any athlete in any sport...not saying we shouldnt take him but id wait til the 5th (if he's even there)!

Wow, I missed that........ certainly something to be concerned about......speed & quickness is a lot of his game.

[widow4523]

I'd love for us to be able to land Dennard. We already have 3 of his former teammates I'm sure they could keep him in line. If he fall to the late 3rd 4th he'd be a huge steal. He could win the NB job immediately, and would bring some physicality to our CB's.

he doesnt have any character issues....i mean cops are *******s so i dont blame him....

but that sucks for mannifield.. he can still recover to 100% if he takes his time to heal....but he would be a huge steal in the 5th.....

either way, i expect 4 big contributors in this draft....We know RG3 will start day one. the third rounder will be an OL, DB, or WR that will probably start right away or have a major contribution.. same goes for the 2 4th rounders...

we will come out of this draft a lot deeper and with at least 3 starters IMO...
we already have one in RG3

If Baylor C Phillip Blake is there in the 3-4th round, which is likely, we should take him. RG 3 speaks highly of him, which may be to boost his draft stock, but at least they would have chemistry. I'm sure griffin would support Blake coming to the skins if he knew if they guy could really play or not. If he came in at center we could slide Mont back over to guard, providing more depth. O line was solid last year when healthy. If we get more depth on the line that will be the last final piece to this offense.

Widow that's ridiculous. Whether cops are *******s or not, you have to be smart enough to keep your hands to yourself. I think the ******* is the guy who can't stay out of trouble a week before the biggest day of his life.

Skin_fan I think we need help at other positions. We can most certainly get someone to fill a bigger need in the 3-4th round.

[Skin_fan1991]

We could always use o line, we have 2 4ths, it wouldn't be a reach to take him

“That hip that he’s had that tear on looks better than it’s ever looked. His flexibility is 100 percent different than it was the last two years. Right now I feel better about Jammal Brown than I have since I’ve been here.”

-Shanahan on Jammal Brown

[Shareeb_omac2]

"We want to have him back, obviously, we think he’ll be full speed by the first of June, middle of June. Hopefully we’ll get him re-signed. Tim is doing a great job on his rehab. Talking to Dr. Anderson, he said that he’s never seen a guy that has worked as hard as Tim has and that doesn’t surprise me at all."

-Shanahan on Tim Hightower

rd4- Donald Stephenson, OT, Oklahoma
rd4- Emmanuel Acho, ILB/OLB, Texas
rd5- Philip Blake, C/G, Baylor

There will be better CBs then Boykin IMO available in the 3rd (im not as high on him as some)...dont see Stephenson fallin to the 4th but that would be great...

[skinsfan2847]

Virginia Tech cornerback Jayron Hosley and Arizona State linebacker Vontaze Burfict failed their drug tests.

Both are very talented if either fall to a spot where we could pick them which would you rather have.

I would want Hosley

[Skin_fan1991]

Burfict might drop to 6th or 7th

[kbaxter34]

Burfict might drop to 6th or 7th

he might not get drafted

[Skin_fan1991]

True.. I hope none of the other NFC east teams get him
