Scott Wells signs with Rams

I agree with 2 and 3 especially. Myers was never really in play but losing Wells was a huge loss. I can only imagine that the FO feels really good about Peyton and eased up on Wells knowing that Jeff Saturday will be available and familiar come Monday.

I am disappointed though, because we are going to have to seriously consider P Konz with our first pick and the Abraham re-signing keeps DE a high priority during the draft. I'm not sure how we successfully navigate DE at #20.

I imagine one train of thought with the FO is that even with an upgraded D-line, our secondary's youth will still give up points. I don't mind if we re-establish our run blocking to help us control the clock as long as we have Peyton's ability to put points on the board. That is a HUGE conditional and it borders on unreasonable to consider that a 36 year old QB with new skill players around him can be able to do it in year one.

 

I'd admit I was one of the guys who wanted Myers/Wells but their is no need in getting upset over it, the draft is still ahead of us.

Chris Myers was drafted in the 6th round
Scott Wells was drafted in the 7th round

I still have faith that Much and Matthews can get a gem or two late and turn them around, if they have potential unlike a few other guys on the line. We still have Valesco who look good in his limited action at guard.

Quentin Saulsberry is a guy we can consider in the 4th round and up this kid played Center, Right Guard, Left Guard, Right Tackle very versatile and hard worker.

 

Morgan, 1st rounder, and 2 cheap veterans from free agency.

I think we only have defensive end on our roster right now that will be here next year.

 

This hurts. Damn you Fisher.

There was 3 pro-bowl level Cs in FA: Hardwick, Meyers, and Wells... and we missed on all of them. Now were stuck with Amano who can't run block, and is average at pass blocking, but makes elite C money. Stupid. Stupid.

I'm hoping we can land a couple of depth DEs, and then take Peter Konz in the draft. Konz is a monster. Sign a couple players like Bunkley and Wimbley. Take Konz 1st, DE 2nd, DT 3rd. Bam!
