Picking up Larry Johnson, (rumors have started,) wouldn't be bad, either. Willie Parker looks scared, and he would give good size and toughness out of the back, with Moore still as a great go-to.

Mendenhall is the great wild card in this whole discussion. How will he come back?
Screw Mendenhall.... Mewelde Moore has proved himself this season.. they need to keep him

I'll not take anything away from Mewelde Moore, and I honestly wasn't trying to.

Carolina - Offensive coordinator for sure
Draft a quarterback maybe

Big congrats to the Redbirds. They definitely brought it.

Re: What does YOUR NFL team need to change for 2009

With the Patriots a healthy Brady would be nice but with some defensive additions we could survive with Cassel. Quality corners so that we could run a man defense and a replacement for Rodney Harrison would probably go to the top of the list. A good run stopping lb in the mold of Ted Johnson would be nice and a good pass rushing dl to push our over priced stars would be a bonus. On offense a tackle and guard trainee would fill our plate. Nice to dream.

Re: What does YOUR NFL team need to change for 2009

My NFL team abandoned me by moving away many years ago. Screw the NFL.

Go Bruins!

Re: What does YOUR NFL team need to change for 2009

Well .. I'm a Bears fan.

I say.. dig up Walter Payton... suit up Dick Butkis.

Really.. I think some consistency at the QB would be nice. A good leader. Kyle O was doing good.. but still a 2nd rate QB.

Re: What does YOUR NFL team need to change for 2009

[SIZE=3]Oakland Raiders:[/SIZE]

1. We need a LT. This should be the #1 priority this off-season. The good thing is that the draft is pretty deep this year in this position. We have so much money invested in Jamarcus Russell that it is insane not to have a great LT protecting him.

2. A #1 WR who can stretch the field is a must as well. Crabtree would be ideal in the draft, but he will be gone at pick 6 and I would rather we went with OL anyways. We will look hard at a WR in the 2nd round I am sure. The FA market looks bleak at this position though.

3. A run stuffing DT. We are horrible against the run and this can be attributed to the play on the DL.

4. A DE who can get to the QB is needed as well, but not as much now with the play of the diamond in the rough Trevor Scott this season.

I would add one more maybe two to the list give McFadden the ball! Even Bush looked better back there.

Oh yeah and a head coach couldn't hurt. Give John Goodman errhh uhhh Tom Cable a chance.

In all seriousness it looked like the team bought into his system at the end of the year.

Maybe a better question for you is. "what does your team not need?"

Mendenhall is the great wild card in this whole discussion. How will he come back?
I don't think we need to pick up any RB's in the off season. Willie scared? Watch Sunday. He should have a great day. Mende will be back healthy and Moore has to stay. One thing he has over Willie is he can catch the ball.

I think the OL will be addressed in free agency and the defense in the draft.

Oh, how I am looking forward to Sunday

GO STEELERS!!

Carolina needs a quarterback. I would say fire Delhomme, but we may end up w/ something worse.
