Quote:Caldwell also snagged a bunch of Seattle's old guys. Well, They are all over the hill now. I don't really have an issue with the way Caldwell has done business in this regard because while patching the defense in F/A, He fixed the offense via the draft (Most important). Expect the defense to get some more draft love going forward and expect the defense to get better as we go. 

True, he did; but it was the guys that the seahawks were ready to let go of for various reasons such as age or lack of production. What we got was the seahawks 'cast offs'. No wonder they didn't do that much here... they weren't doing that much for Seattle by the time they were let go. I think that, as you pointed out, the emphasis has been more on fixing our offense the past couple of years. I think that we have our offense shored up enough for the present that more emphasis can be put back on shoring up our defense... which I've no doubt is exactly what Dave will work on. This isn't to say we still don't have needs on our offense; to be sure, we could use upgrades on our o-line. That being said, I still think the lions share of emphasis will go this next draft and f/a to defensive players, particularly linesmen. It'll be interesting to see what we have in Fowler over the next couple of years.
