I was convinced Holmgren and Heckert were the front office combo that would turn the franchise around

This is your fault, man. You knew what you were getting yourself into, and still you neglected to bring a flask of whiskey??

Then if you like that, up your game to Trappist Rochefort 8 or 10

We should get somewhere between 10-12 wins, so I'll say 11-5, and we take the division.

Good to have that clarity, especially in light of weighing trading Duke. Our offense is going to be getting a shot in the arm for the back stretch of the season!

We have the remaining free agent pool, draft, and roster cuts still ahead of us. If we can emerge from those with a starting SS and LB as well as a CB that contends for Mitchell's # 2 spot and a depth o-lineman to push Corbett of sub flexibly along the line (like Corbett's role last year) I'll be ecstatic.

Winning the division and at least one playoff win is certainly realistic. And if all the potential on paper actually comes together in real life, Super Bowl contention. I won't call that yet, though, it may take a year for all of this to gel.

His boxing skills vs kicking nets and gatorade coolers could use some improvement.

It'll be Dorsey's BPA, but factoring in needs, I'm sensing a pick in the secondary

Nice depth addition. Playoffs or bust this year!

Just as the Steelers lose their 2 superstars and their meathead QB is staring at his twilight years and the Ravens defense loses a bunch of players, Dorsey pushes his pile of chips into the middle of the table. Talk about sensing weakness in your opponents! Boss move.

Good move. Richardson + Olivier are a big shot in the arm for our D-line so far, and I expect it will probably continue into the draft. Our defense will be much stronger this season.

In the immortal words of Trigger Truckstop Haslam after covering his tracks from the FBI and careful deliberations with a homeless guy on Lou Groza Blvd: "Let's go git 'im!"

Judging by all the activity last year, no way. We've only fired the shot across the bow so far.
