    I think we're set pretty well but as of today where do you feel the most insecure on the team? I'm concerned with the secondary, so I'm goin with Smith.

    My vote goes for O-Line depth, but since it's not an option I voted for Smith.

    Coleman's going to be damn good with Jenkins next to him, mark it down. He was still actually decent last year.

    Looking at it position by position

    Our biggest need is a safety starting opposite Rhodes.

    If we want to be an elite team we need more depth at DL, QB, RB.

    Either way, Eric Smith isn't terrible imo and to have him as our worst starting player is pretty good.

    I had to go with Smith too...I still don't understand what happened to Erik Coleman. I mean, he was pretty solid for us for 2 years. Suddenly he is no longer starting and being replaced by no name guys.

    Depth on the OL and time for the new players to gel. This team has a chance to be special on both sides of the ball. Could be the best talent we put on the field since 98.

    Who are our backup DE's? I don't even know actually. However Kellen will be fine as our backup. They think he's the future anyway. Also why do you say we need RB depth? RB's are so easy to come by and I think Leon Washington will be starting by mid-season and TJ will be a great relief.

    My biggest concern is the STs, it's sounds silly since we have been good for so long but was it just westhoff? Can O'dea replace him? That's a big question for me and STs will be huge as usual.

    i feel that DE is a spot we should address next year at the top rounds of the draft. ellis is nice but he's old and not as effective as he was not that he's in a 3-4... and coleman is ok,but i want a stud and every level of D would be awesome

    We need to find a receiver who can stretch the field now. In the Draft both De spots and Right Tackle should be addressed.

    Our defense is not awful, it's actually good and should be alot better this year. We stunk the first half last year but after Harris stepped in the D was completely different and we made alot of changes. I'll be disappointed if our D isn't in the top half of the league this year.
