We also need to sign someone for depth.  Over the years I have made thousands of post about free agents that contained language some thing like "you don't make a move like that unless you have a roster that is just one or two players away from winning a championship".  well, this is that year.  We need to make that extra move or two this year because there is no guarantee that we will have a roster this close again.  All sorts of stuff could happen with free agency and injuries.  I am not saying we need to go out and blow $10 million on another starter, but we could really use some depth for the o-line.

Hey Fred and I agree on something.

Personally, I want to see a vet OL and WR added, at least. I'm super nervous about the WR and OL depth in case any starter goes down.
I'd also be ok with adding Ogunjobi midseason, but I want to see how Carter and Hill fare first.
I wouldn't have selected Carter over Perrion Winfrey, but I do think he can become a good IDL.
And I really like Hill. I wanted Hill kept over Ogunjobi even if the injury didn't happen.

Me too, I'd feel much better.
