Question: I know the draft is months away, but the only positions that I would draft for are: Defensive End, Defensive Tackle, Cornerback and Safety, in that order. No other positions … agree?
Bob Sturm: For me, DE, Safety, and then best difference maker regardless of position. LB, CB, DT, RB, or even QB. I now have a good foundation and need to keep adding difference makers. I am planning a thorough review of the prospects starting immediately.
Looks like they are getting the coaching staff signed to new contracts. I think it would have been a disaster if they had let Marinelli get away.
So did you see that they let DeMarco Murray go to the Eagles and signed McFadden to take his place?
Also seen Greg Hardy is negotiating with an "unknown" team for his services, wonder if it's with the Cowboys since they could use someone like him and might be willing to take a chance on him?

McFadden? Isn't he...well...done?? The salary cap is finally hurting the 'Boys.
Off topic: As much as I admire and enjoy the courage and play of Romo or Peyton, I think its foolish to risk paralysis from one simple blind side shot to the neck or back. They're both very vulnerable. Peyton has his SB win. I realize Romo's got "something to prove" BUT...
It all depends on what they manage to get in the draft as to who they might decide to go after. My guess is it will be another LB or CB.
Well they just drafted a CB in the 1st round so that should eliminate the FA need for a CB. BTA they might get one anyway cause I think they really need to replace both Carr and Claiborne.

The draft was today? Too much going on? (NY Rangers lost to Caps with 2 seconds left in regulation :-(
Good FA corners are usually fluky. A proven CB is a solid move. Shoring up the Dallas O-Line was 2 years too late -- but better than never. I still feel that need a better RB. And frankly, a new tight end. Romo's bud has lost a step and is getting too beat up. AND...a competent backup QB, Romo's playing on borrowed time, like Peyton.

I didn't know you were into hockey?? I haven't found too many people that were into it cause most don't understand it, especially the pugilistic aspect.
So do we need to start a 2015 Playoff thread or wait awhile and do a 2016 Predictions thread or both??? :)
I got hooked on it when I was living in Texas and went thru the Dallas Stars 2 Cup runs (beat Buffalo and lost to NJ).
Stars fans are wild. The bawdy Rangers fans on their 2010-11 playoff runs were mostly Stars fans. They needed something while waiting for hockey to start again.

Oh yeah. Been following since the early 70s --the pre-helmet days. Really wild back then. I was fortunate enough to watch Rangers/Islanders/Flyer TV games all the time. Liked both the Rangers and Isle. Despised the Flyers. Not watching NHL hockey as much during the last 10 years or so.
The styles have really changed....people used to love the "pugilistic" or "enforcer" aspects *for* the anticipated entertainment value; I thought the fighting got too distracting, but intimidation and threat made for compelling strategy and gut-checks. If you get Netflix (don't know if it's still there) there was an interesting "30-30" documentary on former Habs' enforcer (and even one-time Ranger/Bruins) Chris Nilan. Mostly played during the 80s/90s but became a heroin addict. Sad story.

Heh...Whatchoo think? Rangers won 3-2 and tied up the Caps yesterday -- series at 1-1. Ovechkin -- he's the league's Darth Vader...but a heckuva hockey player.

Ha...the Mike Modano days? The Stars had some excellent teams. Go to many games? NOTHING like the intensity of NHL playoff hockey.
