Sooo we are lining up three ILB and one OLB?

You really think that Thomas and Vrabel are going to play every down? It's called substitution. Curry is versatile he can play anywhere, he just needs work on his pass rushing skills.

You advocate ten million arguements a day on this forum, the possibility of us taking him is always there. If people on this forum are foolish enough to think we're going to draft Sanchez or Stafford and hold them hostage for picks then us getting Curry is always a possibility.

Also I guarantee you that Thomas won't play more than one or two more seasons and Vrabel not much more than that. Build for the future my friend.

ROFL

LB depth is just what we need with the #3 pick.

Still I wouldnt' mind getting Maluaga with the trade down pick and making sure he's on our team instead of San Diego or Denver.

But the signing of Zach Thomas means we cant get Maualuga! Hes a linebacker too!

If I hear one more person say Curry can play outside linebacker I'm going to climb a clocktower.

No we need an olineman imo, it's not like I have a hardon for Curry, I'm just saying the possibility is always out there.

Maulaga has more pass rushing skills, in fact that's going to be his biggest thing in the NFL, that's why the Broncos and other 3-4 teams are wanting him.

He cant play outside linebacker because hes not versatile, has never played that position before and cant rush the passer.

So do I keep lying to you?

I wish we could get him, or any other linebacker in this draft. But since we signed Thomas it just cant happen. That ol' 35 year old man ruined our chances of drafting a linebacker. Darn.

You're doing such a fantastic job of lying to yourself, why in the merry, happy hell not?!

I'm sorry but I can't help but think this is a great signing.

Plugging some of these holes for a year makes sense. I would have rathered for us to track down another OLB to compliment Vrabel but this makes sense, too.

With this, I seriously doubt we even draft ILB this year. Our holes at DL, OL, and WR can be addressed.

No Holtzclaw, folks. Breaks my heart.

Yeah, well, you're their best-seller!

I agree, veteran leadership is just the thing we need after a year of failure and being the youngest team in the NFL.
