Then aquire a REAL GOOD center through FA.
Interesting.... At this moment I don't think we'll go in that direction. Let's take a look at what we have right now.

Wide Out

1. Randy Moss - Could be traded for a decent WR or he might stay with the promise of getting a better OC.

2. Jerry Porter - Definitely gone he's caught up in a log jam of decent recievers.

3. Ronald Curry - Handled himself very well against the Bengals 10 - 99 and 1 TD is not bad

4. Alvis Whitted - The return of James Jett with better hands but he still drops too many balls.

5. John Madsen - The kid needs more playing time, but he has skills

6. Johnny Morant - WTF happened to him?

All of these guys with the exception of Morant run better routes than Moss.


Running Back

Lamont Jordan - Liability in pass blocking situations doesn't hit the hole hard enough and has a knee injury

Justin Fargas - Tough runner but just too light in the ass to make a real difference.

Zack Crockett - Tough runner great blocker catches the ball well.

All the others suck!

Offensive line

Gawd where do we start! Gallery is made of glass, Mcquistan needs more work... Grove doesn't make good line calls... Walker is a slug who commits too many penalties

Quarterback

Aaron Brooks - Not going to cut it with Moss... he is correct to spread the ball around. Makes too many mistakes and is unsure of his position as a leader.

Andrew Walter - If the offense was taylored for him he could be great... to immobile to take 7 step drops.

Tui - Give him a chance some where else!

Defense... We need a dominant DT and DE.

With this being said... I think we go Running Back or Offensive line. WR would be a waste because of the turn around time QB... Let's face it Al will not draft a QB in the first round.
