    No, we need a Cornerback, big time. Pass rush? Yeah, from the defensive line. Bryan Thomas racked up 8.5 sacks, Hobson another 6, Barton had around 4. What more do you want from the linebackers? Kimo von Oelhoffen needs to be either released or needs to become a part time player and we need a DE who can get to the Quarterback or at least force pressure on the opposite side of Big Katt Ellis.

    Cornerback, however, don't fool yourself because it IS a very big need. David Barrett has been over-rated since he got here, Justin Miller is way too inconsistent and will probably at best be a future Nickelback and Drew Coleman is not ready to start and Hank Poteat? Nice story but he's not a full-time starter. Nate Clements or Asante Samuel would make this one of the best secondary's in the league with Dyson & Rhodes.

    And most of those sacks took time to register. I haven't seen a sack all year, where one of our guys shot right around the edge and instantly sacked the quarterback, or forced pressure from anyone other then Kerry Rhodes.

    i think a cb is really apart of the overall defense if you look at the steelers defense the blitz and pass rush from every angle we need to get to that point were you dont know whose coming and from where
