I'd bring Burgess back, he was looking good down the stretch.

I am OK with bringing Burgess back too but with or without him there is still a RDE need and a pass rush need.

Certainly, depth is required.

Burgess should be the depth and hopefully we can find someone to start in his place (well actually in Greens place).

Or to split time with Wright and Burgess, as Green did.

I would be fine with Burgess and Odrick, as I think many would be. And, of course, we would still need an OLB.

I sort of doubt that he would jump ship. Why play in the freezing rain and cold on a plastic surface and deal with a nasty media when you can pay on a nice soft grass field with warm weather? It used by that players would jump ship in Miami because the team was so bad but not anymore alas....I would welcome it but I just do not see it happening.

Agreed, I'm sure he won't be asking too much. Has he even got interest elsewhere? At the least we do need the depth and at the best he continues the improvement and becomes the guy we gave up a 3rd for.

That, and bring in a WR and I think we are okay heading into the draft.
