Focus should not be on DL. Great Need is offensive line, especially center. Also, a deep threat WR.

In response to the above paragraph, i feel DE,OL, & CB are the greatest needs in the upcoming 2009 draft. After Santonio’s performance in the Super Bowl teams are gonna show him more respect with double coverages than we think. He might not be able to run a fly route and smoke every DB in the NFL, but he can some. He showed his explosiveness in the playoffs. Don’t always have to go deep to scare opposing defenses. Did Jerry Rice only beat the opposition by going deep. I’m not saying Santonio is Jerry Rice, but the man proved he can make huge plays in huge games. He hasn’t even peaked yet! I’m personally a huge Santonio fan, my 2and a half year old son even can say Santonio! I also think Sweed will come along very well too. With Nate gone he should see more passes this year, we should concentrate on other positions this year and if Sweed doesn’t mature in ’09 maybe draft a WR in 2010. Let’s not forget about Hines too, he still has many good years left and just his presence alone is huge!!
