Linebacker selection in the upcoming Draft appears to be thin. Perhaps the combine will discover some qualities not seen already on the game film. In any case, the inside of the Defense needs to be improved. A player is needed that can stop the run and drop into coverage as needed.

I've not reviewed the Free Agent market , could be something there . Offense will be fine, Special Teams needs better coaching. Raji should return to his spot, but ILB needs serious attention.

I say again, we do NOT need a D Lineman in the early rounds. We also do NOT need a wide receiver (a lot of Janis and Abbrederis is what we need there). We do need a ILB early in the draft. I bet we take a Corner high also, given the free agent situation of Tramon and House as well as the fact that you can never have too many good Corners.

I STILL want Melvin Gordon - regardless of what anybody says/regardless of lack of need for a RB with Lacy, etc.. Gordon IMO is a once in a generation player, a true difference maker, before he's finished, one of the 2 or 3 best RBs ever. I will cry when somebody else drafts him; I will rant and rave and RAGE if he's there at #30 and the Packers don't take him.

How would that make you feel Tex?
