I don't think Dunta Robinson will want to resign with us, I feel that he might want to test the waters and see what other teams are offering him before he comes running back to us.

As for running back, its important that we establish a run game but I think there is no need because Slaton proved to us that he has the ability to carry the rock like he did his rookie season and I also feel that we have something special in Arian Foster, now all we need is a goaline back.

Our defense needs to continue adding playmakers and the starters on our roster need to continue improving. If we can get Joe Haden, Earl Thomas, or Perrish Cox in the first round then that will either fix our CB or S need.

Next we need to upgrade the interior offensive line by drafting a center and a guard so we can open up running lanes for whomever our running back will be.

We also need a punter and kicker to provide some competition for our current starters.

Basically, there are a number of ways we can go but the 2010 NFL Draft will be amongst our best (hopefully)...

Interesting thoughts. Since we can tag him, I tell DR go get your deal and bring us back a 2nd round pick & we will let you go. I think you vastly over stated Slaton's ability to run the ball last season. Foster did well in 3 games against questionable defense. I hope you are correct & if you are why isn't Foster your Red Zone guy? He is 6 foot 232 lbs. Thomas is a great FS and may be a CB also. I like Kyle Wilson CB and Perrish Cox but the latter has to get his head screwed on straight. I think you will find CHester Pitts starting the season at LG.
