Wow, Carlos Polk eh? I started a thread on him a while back. I don't know if he would be in the top 10 but I think he would be a good signing. He's played alot at OLB in San Diego's 3-4 this season and is a special teams demon. Worst case, he have a great player on special teams. Best case we have a LB hitting his prime that could contribute in our regular starting rotation.

I would expect to see some secondary help come in through FA. I think Rod Hood is near the top of that list because I think he would solidify the nickle. I'm also going to throw Travis Fisher into the mix. Now I know he has been hurt the past few years, but he really looked like he had some talent coming out of the same school as Asante. He was picked in the second round so he is alright physically. I think he is a guy we might bring in for short money and see what he can do if he stays healthy

fuggedabowdit!!

Most of these guys stink with the exception of Stallworth (who is always injured) and Drew Bennett.

I live in DC and they have castigated Holdman for a couple years. It's newsworthy when he makes a tackle or has a decent game. The rest of them are no better than the reserves we currently have.

Mat McBriar? We have Miller, Sauerbrun, Walter, Baugher, and Malone. I see no room for another punter.

Torbor got moved from defensive end in college to a 4-3 backer position. He is best fit in a 3-4 as an outside backer. He won't set the world on fire but could make plays and contribute on special teams. I know we have all those punters, that is the problem- how about one good one.
