    Depth, Depth, Depth, Depth

    Depth.. Depth.. Depth... GOD I'm so sick of hearing that word.

    We're looking at this guy for "depth". This guy is a good signing because he's "depth".

    You know what word I'd LOVE to start hearing?

    "STARTER"

    We're a losing football team ladies and gentlemen. We need STARTERS. WE have more "depth" than any team in the history of football.

      Everybody would like every signing to be a 1st string starter, it's not going to happen.

          Yes we need a few key positions filled but depth is important as evidenced by the number of players we had on IR last year. It didn't take long for you to turn negative on the FO did it?

            Umm, other teams actually address their problem positions by signing starters...not depth players.

                Depth is only good if you actually have good starters in front of them. At this time, we are lacking in a few areas...TE, WR & CB.

                    Re: Depth, Depth, Depth, Depth

                    We've already relegated three '07 starters to the bench (or to the unemployment line): Keith Ellison, Kyle Williams, and Larry Tripplett. And we were projected to lose no one who was a starter to FA. Granted, at least 1/3rd of our starters from '07 invited upgrades, but we've accomplishmed some of that and the only remaining positions that behoove a dramatic improvement from replacements are 2nd wideout (Josh Reed) and TE (Robert Royal). I don't like Melvin Folwer but we'll live with him another year at C, anyway, it seems. And Jabari Greer is not an elite CB but he was not often exposed last year and both he and McGee could surprise with a front-four that can actually generate some semblance of even an infrequent pass-rush. So... and I realize it's asking a lot out of draft picks... we're probably drafting two immediate starters- at WR (Sweed, Kelly) and TE (a plethora of options here). It's manageable- we have removed our needs at DT and LB and upgraded 3 starting spots already.

                        Ben Utecht. Justin Hartwig. Dan Kreider.

                          Eric Johnson would've been another. Don't forget Hackett.

                            Kreider is a FB so who really cares. You talkin about the same Hartwig that the Panthers just canned. No thanks. And Utecht is not an upgrade over Royal. I would have the same stats with Manning throwing me the ball. I.E how is pollard doing in seattle? Thanks for trying, please play again

                              You're wrong. Hartwig is a BIG improvement over what we have. Don't know much about Utecht, but I know Eric Johnson is something this team doesn't have...a TE who can actually catch!
