I'm going to try to avoid going into too great detail in the offseason. I'll hit the key signings, cuts, and extensions, but probably won't mention the name of the 51/51 G I sign.

We head into our first offseason weak at QB, set at RB/FB, in need at TE, fairly solid at WR, decent at OL, set at DL and DB, and lacking at LB.

The FA class has nothing at QB, so Cassel and his big contract remain with us. Also, I can see the FA contract rule already shaping my contract decisions. Specifically, it's encouraging me to extend guys rather than my normal SP strategy of letting guys walk into FA and replacing them very cheaply. I suspect that eventually we'll get squeezed by the cap and be forced to start drafting for positional need.

For now, I give big extensions to RB Charles and CB Flowers and can only really afford one key FA signing: TE Zach Miller (54/54) inks a 2-year deal with us.

I'll draft in the morning.
