In order of my preference

 

[polarbill1999]

My god I would crap my pants if we could get seymour on a reasonable one year deal.

 

[McGruff]

Too old. Wouldn't trust him.

Best option is Branch + draft.

 

[The Yugoslavian]

Bring back Branch. No not Deion...

 

[QuahHawk]

If we can get both Branch and Seymore for under $6Mil would you do it? Seymore is old but he would only be a piece of the puzzle.

 

[Wasteland2112]

Seymore would be an awesome pick-up on a one year deal. Would allow us to take a mid to late round flyer or two on guys in the draft to see if they develop.

 

[DJrmb]

I'm beginning to wonder about Sedrick Ellis with his USC ties...

 

[theENGLISHseahawk]

Branch for me.

 

[Blitzer88]

At this point, I would really like to get Alan branch back.

 

[DJrmb]

I liked Branch, as a guy and as a player, but he seemed to be more of a run stuffer. Aren't we looking for a 3-tech DT???

I would take both for 6 mil. Sign them up.

 

[Seahawker86]

we are clearly drafting a DT with the 2nd round pick, or the 3rd rounnd pick if we trade out which MAY end up happening

 

[DJrmb]

Amobi Okoye intrigues me. He was drafted and thrown into play as a kid at only 19 years old and put up 5.5 sacks that year. Since then he's been pretty pedestrian but man what kind of Talent does a kid have to posses to play in the NFL at 19 YO? Maybe our new d-coordinator can coach him up enough to be a valuable 3rd down DT? He would definitely be cheap, he only played for a 1 year 1.3M dollar contract last year.

 

[kearly]

I'm relieved that Branch hasn't really seen a ton of action yet. I'd love to bring him back, but if it's for $5 million a season, I'd pass.

 

[Rat]

I remember Dwan Edwards being OK once. How has he been the past few seasons?

 

[The Yugoslavian]

We are looking for help at 3tech no question, but we will be looking for help at clogging up running lanes if we don't get Branch back. I say resign him in a day or two when the market cools down and use our 2nd round pick on one of the many good pass rushing DT prospects this Draft is loaded with.

 

[nanomoz]

Getting Branch back would be solid. Seymour could be a superb band aid. Major upgrade to McDonald. If we want to take a chance on a still young underachiever, Okoye is intriguing.

 

[vin.couve12]

Sylvester Williams in round 2 or 3 would be good. Big and powerful enough to spell Bane, but also quick enough to play 3. Kawann Short doesn't have anything in particular about his game that really stands out physically, but he's very crafty in disengaging from blocks and using his hands in the pass rush. Could be a good prospect to compete at 3. There are other DTs in the draft that could do us some good too, but aside from Star I think Sylvester Williams delivers the most explosive pop in his use of power and hands right off the LOS. He's quick, but can trample an OL from time to time.

 

[TheHawkster]

We need a run stopper and a pocket mover. Nothing special, just make the QB uncomfortable.
I'd be fine with Branch and Okoye.
This FO seem to always exceeds my expectations so lets see who we get.

Everyone wants to play here! Hurray us!

 

[NYCoug]

Amobi!!!

Always been a big fan of his. I'd love it if we brought him in and resurrected his career.
