the most important guy I want wrapped up early this off season is Leigh Boddin ........
I love our OL, now and for the near future. I think that an OL that is made up of Light, Mankins, Volmer, Kaczar, Koppen, Connolly, LeVoir; is deep and talented..
You're forgetting Butler who has more athleticism and speed than Bodden does.
Brady IS our #1 priority. Then Wilfork. As we have seen this season, it doesn't matter if we have the best secondary in the world. If you let a NFL quarterback sit in the pocket all day, he will pick apart ANY secondary.
I see us making Bodden a reasonable offer. If he takes it, great. If not, we go to Butler.
Agree with this. If Bodden gets a great offer somewhere, I think we'll be OKAY at CB. Might need to bring in another cheap veteran for depth, but it's not a dire situation. Concentrate on that front 7 this offseason and interior OL as well as a couple other needs. Wilfork and Mankins need to be locked up IMO.
I also do NOT want to see him on JETS
Talk about the Jets and not wanting to see something. So I live in Raleigh and I'm half watching the Hurricanes game. I glance up and notice something.
I think, "Isn't that nice of the cheerleaders to give that nice pregnant woman a Hurricanes jersey." But why are the cheerleaders recoiling like they are cleaning a public toilet at the Meadowlands? Then it happens...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I live hundreds of miles from Jersey! Why must I continue to be punished like this? So let AD go to the Jets. Just keep Jabba the Gut off my HDTV for a year. Or 20.

With Bodden gone we have exactly one CB. I don't know who you see as a NFL caliber CB from perhaps Butler. Wheatley and Whilhite have had three years and that is the telltale indicator. Nobody ever says it but Wheatley was and is a major bust...... but wasn't he a second rounder? He has had a series of injuries that plagued him in his college career and we overdrafted him in the second. No spin on that pick Cousins. He wasn't worth a second healthy.
Whilhite is NOT a starting NFL CB in this league.That leaves Springs who is that capable veteran so check that off. He made some plays and he has one year left on his contract. He knows the system so what the Helsinki.... How are we o.k. at CB if Bodden leaves?
These are not opinions. These are just facts.

That said, I think people are too harsh on Wilhite. He could be a fine nickel, or perhaps a #2, depending on how he develops.

Next year is the tell-tale for Willhite. He had some good moments and some brutal moments. A pass rush will help this secondary.
Same goes for Wheatley.
No doubt. But then again, so did Samuel in his second year.
I'd like to think that in their second year in the league, Asante was better than Willhite. However, I think Asante benefited from a better pass rush and Rodney to help put him in better positions to succeed.
