    I hope we see him f**k some people up preferably a Denver Bronco DB.

      TOTALLY thought Alstott when I saw this guy!

      How is he recovering from his broken femur? Obviously, breaking the bone is better than tearing a knee up but still, how long of a recovery? Is he ready for OTA's at the end of the month.

      Good pick...

      Edit: just saw he made it back in season. Hope he's back to full strength.

          After the Texans loss I knew we needed that same rushing attack which exposed our defense.

            Some great convo here about the "cycles," the "chess moves."

            Staley is aware of all of this.

            It will turn out to be that the "we wanna be a LOS team" comment was most significant.

            Staley stated that we made an affirmative decision to not draft WR, that he likes our WR population as is. The LB situation speaks for itself.

            The only surprise in my mind is EDGE. There are plenty of hired gun pass rushers out there. We will wait for a decent price, if it is necessary to add someone.

            Put a roof on opponents offenses.

                Exactly. Force them to dink and dunk their way down the entire field. Require opponents to be very patient.

                  And u know that sooner or later, an opposing QB will get frustrated and force the rock into a tight window...oh, and BTW, our shiny new safety, JT Woods, who led the nation in interceptions, has a rep for baiting QB's to force those throws...then he turns on the jets for the pick...

                    re WR: we have a very diverse option of weapons considering WRs, TEs and backfield.

                      AFAIK Horvath has never been asked to be a lead blocker so asking hin to do so at an all star game is a bit silly. He has experience as a pass blocker and ST blocker.

                      Stephen Anderson learned to lead block when he was here. We don't do a lot of lead blocking but if Horvath can learn that and inline blocking he is a complete H back with great traits. I don't mind making that gamble at the end of the 7th.

                        Horvath had 37 run blocking snaps. Better to think of him as Discount Derrick Henry at this point.
