    here is where we stand at the moment player wise.

    new coaching staff of course.

    lots of picks.

    good bit of money for free agency (and could be more)

    i see about 4-5 guys on this list i would like to see re-signed. depends on the money. we have to even up the defensive spending with the offense.

    i'd cut queen and ramsey and use that money for (quay walker and kameron curl) that would get us what we thought we had in the first two.

    add a mid-level WR in free agency. johan dotson? greg dortch? jalen tolbert? < former mccarthy player.

    draft a WR and D-lineman high.

    find a free agent LG. that would be a good start IMO. :cool:

    This offseason has to be about building an Oline that won’t get bullied and beat up like last night’s Patriots performance.

    Dominant Oline wins games.

    No QB can perform with a terrible Oline like the Patriots showed.

    I've got the current roster depth chart stickied and coded for guys hitting free agency, and others entering the final year under contract, along with notable free agents by position above.

    I'm one of the few that watches all of the combine. It gives me that football fix until the draft.

    Speaking of off season, the NFL Network had a long ass discussion about the Patriots chances next season.

    I've been thinking of going to one. I've family in the Indianapolis area, so it could be a two birds with one stone type of thing.

    I think @86WardsWay@86WardsWay went one year, said it was kind of boring compared to the network coverage.

    Wonder if I could get down to field level and run some drills, see if I've still got it. More likely, I'd be the first to post a double-digit 40 time. o_O

    i do believe this off season will be quite different then we have had the past 19 years. so there's that.

    this might be like jeh switching from shrimp to scallops and his favorite beer to whiskey. so many unknowns until we know. could be a lot different type of off season then we have become accustom too. :cool:

    To the OP, good luck finding a FA IOL... or any Offensive Lineman for that matter. There really isn't one available unless Tyler Linderbaum elects to sign with Pittsburgh somehow someway; assuming Baltimore doesn't tag him in the first place. Best place to look for one is in the Draft. Vega Ioane is the best plug 'n' play IOL that can get to Pittsburgh at present UNLESS the team likes Kadyn Proctor more than they are letting on. Pittsburgh did attend two Alabama Games this year and while it is safe to say that Ty Simpson may have been the main target for the team, Broderick's injury puts an Offensive Tackle further into focus.

    I feel your pain.

    I need a right knee replacement. I have a hip issue. I've had rotator cuff tears in both shoulders. Some spinal issues.

    Needless to say, I wouldn't be impressing anyone at this point of my life. I know I don't still have it. :lolol:

    There's a price to pay for abusing your body playing sports.
