So here is my wishlist going into this next off season and what I hope to see the team accomplish.
Replace Leroy Hill and Marcus Trufant. Love the guys, and they're the only remnants left of our great run to the superbowl but the game has passed them both by in my opinion, both of them have been a liability when on the field, most of the year. Would also like to see maybe 1 solid late pick for linebacker depth too. I really trust that Pete and John can get us quality depth as usual past the first few rounds. They are second to none in talent evaluation.
Next up, we need a reliable, durable, true #1 Wide Reciever. Someone that can always be counted on. We need that guy that can just move the chains whenever it needs to be done. I still think our current WR's are pretty darn good and Sidney has #1 talent, but he's just unreliable, and there's always that injury risk with him though this year he did manage to pull through for us, instead of riding the pine.
At this point I'm comfortable saying that Bruce Irvin needs to have either a different role, or at the very least only be in on pass rush downs. We need a dominant DE that can pass rush and run stop. Of course thats on just about everyones wish list, but I think that would have made all the difference this year from us losing today, to us winning in the superbowl. I think this might be our absolute #1 need. Could use some interior rush.
Finally, atleast one more Offensive linemen, I'm as far from sold on sweezy even being a backup Oline, as I possibly can be. I'm over the sweezy project.
So what say you fellow hawk fans? I Think with as much as they've accomplished every year through the draft and minimal free agency participation, that it's conceivable we make some moves in every single one of these areas of concern, and with as much talent and depth as we have now it sure gives the Front office alot of freedom to go after their guys. The guys they want most.
Anyone care to add or subtract from my list, lets hear it.
