Tweaking our offensive/defensive lines

Oh, and I did mean Caldwell. My bad.

Yup. You are right. I think that there is no way it happens. It also means not filling some needed holes. All valid points.

I just think Wilson coming back negates the have to have need for FS in this coming draft. DT & OL are just too good in this draft to sacrifice the player or draft pick it would take to get Berry. I am like PK in that I usually like the idea of trading down. However, with us not drafting till the 20th pick this year, the idea of trading up holds some appeal for me.

Having watched Thomas all season, I think he's an excellent ballhawk who makes big plays but he's not a big hitter. You pair him with Pollard (or "Brady Killah", as I've started to call him) and you have a good combo. You pair him with a safety who can't stuff the run, and you are more vulnerable.

Of course I'm going to pair him with Pollard. That guy was my MVP.

I havent seen a lot of Thomas, but the little bit I have seen of him I like. I thought he played great when I have watched him. From what I have read, I would love to pair him with Pollard, just like I would love to pair Berry with Pollard. I am afraid that we may have to trade up to get a shot at Thomas though.
