		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Pool Safety 101: Keeping You &amp; Your Family Safe &amp; Sound&lt;/strong&gt;

We&#039;ve all heard them: there is certainly no shortage of pool-related horror stories. Unfortunately, drowning is the #1 cause of death for children under the age of five in Florida, Arizona, and California and the #2 cause in over a dozen other states.</description>

		<description>nailbok  we didnt decide to choose Daniel over Patrick.. Patrick said he had a better shot at a superbowl in the NCF...get ur facts right.........Simon Fletcher is a great great legend of this game and should get his due....if u put his sacks  up there with Reggie white and Bruce smith during a long stretch there...they were all about equal...but Simon didnt even get any luv for a probowl...thats with over 4 seasons with 10 or more sacks...but denver allways lets are good passrushers go...for instance Bertrand Berry, all be it old..had a great year for us...and Reggie Hayward was a beast both over 10 sacks...but money is a factor</description>

		<description>We need Faneca.

 Period, end of story.

 Al Wilson.....???

 I love him....but I&#039;m not breaking the bank for him.

 Sentiment only goes so far.

 He is owed an apology, the rest he has to earn.</description>

		<description>I would Sh#$ if we got taylor and briggs. I would love to see wilson back as well. If we can get Briggs, that alone would significantly improve our D. Briggs is a bad ass and Taylor is the pass rusher we have wanted for years.</description>

		<description>&quot;Kenny Phillups who I think Denver would be silly if he falls to them and they don’t pick him&quot; - Keep in mind you are talking about the same management personnel that didn&#039;t pick Ed Reed when he fell to them in 2002.

I surely think we need Al back on this team if nothing else for leadership but he belongs in the middle.  I do not agree with moving him to the outside because we will go through yet another year with a LB playing out of position.  We NEED DJ&#039;s speed on the outside covering TEs and breaking up the screen pass that we never seem to be able to stop, and oh by the way, that San Diego uses at will.

I know we have the ability, and have shown it quite often, to drop big money on big time FAs and now it is time to turn that attention to the defense.  Vilma, Briggs and Jason Taylor (yes I said his name again) would take this defense to an unimaginable level.  Then focus the draft on adding Phillips (should Shanahan oblige this year) and a quality DT capable of plugging the middle.  I doubt Tenn will let Albert go since the world now knows how different of a team they are when he is not on the field.  I would let Vince go before I let him go if I was Fisher.

So to recap: and unfortunately I don&#039;t control the money or make decisions but:

Defense:

DTs - Marcus T., Draft Pick
DEs - Elvis D., Jason T. (J. Moss and T. Crowder backups)
OLBs - DJ, Lance Briggs
MLB - Jon Vilma for speed and ability/Al Wilson for leadership (Not sure which is more important right now)
SS - Hamzah A.
FS - Kenny Phillips
CBs - Champ, Dre

Offense

QB - Cutler
WRs - Marshall, Walker (I think he needs to stay but not my call), Stokely, (draft pick - Danny Amendola)
TEs - Graham, Sheffler
RBs - Selvin, Andre (Henry gone)
GDs - Holland, Hamilton (Kuper backup)
LT - R. Harris (or draft pick)
RT - E. Pears (or draft pick)
C - C. Myers (Dont know if Nalen will be back)</description>

		<description>Well, so much for keeping continuity.  Another season of &quot;adjustments&quot; and failed expectations in 2008.</description>

		<description>So i just read that Al Wilson has been cleared to play in 2008, http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3189580,  We better be the first ones to call him, we really need his leadership back and he is one of  top MLB in the league,  This would also help us in the draft because we would not need to draft a LB</description>
