I think Jwill would be great at weak LB, and rivers at strong LB. In the middle we might take ogletree in the first if he falls to us, but otherwise, i'm still okay with Blackburn for ONE more year IF we draft a guy late to develop. Most of our running defense woes was that you could basically bounce off-tackle to Osi's side and gain an instant first down...

2) Tynes being cut.. Dear god, wherever will be find another FG kicker that can't make a kick outside 50?
Don't really have strong feelings either way.

3) Beatty getting franchised, that means they want him to stay and become a lockdown LT.. Pay the man, all the money we're paying two average linemen (Diehl, Snee) comes off the books in the next two years anyway
Not franchise, we need Beatty locked up with a 5+ year deal.

However, as I've said many times.. If Diehl is on this roster next year, Tom Coughlin will find a way to put him in the lineup and stunt the growth of younger lineman. Cut him, bring back Locklear and hope for the best with Brewer, because he can't be any worse than Diehl.
I hope Locklear can be ready to play week 1. That would be great. Doubt it, but it would be great.

Rolle, and Webster should be cut but I doubt that happens.
I think we should cut webster than then offer him a take it or leave it vet min contract. The total cap hit for cutting him + a new vet min deal is about 4 million, compared to the 7 million he is due in his existing contract.
