OK well, here's the recap of the offseason:
FAs:

Stacy Andrews (LG, 87) - 5 years, $26 total, $4 bonus.
Asante Samuel (CB, 92) - 5 years, $45 total, $8 bonus.
Dontarrious Thomas (MLB, 73) - 1 year, $1.2 total.

While Andrews and Samuel were expensive, I believe they are worth it. An elite corner changes the game and a stud guard helps in more ways than one. Thomas was signed as depth.

Draft:
I traded down from 13 as nobody was available that I liked. I sent it to the Cowboys for #28, a 3-#28 and a 7th rounder next season.
#28 - Kenny Phillips (SS, Miami). I needed some help in the secondary even after the signing of Samuel.
2-11 - Calias Campbell (RE, Miami) - Another defensive guy, who will start right away.
3-3 - Jamaal Charles (HB, Texas) - A speed threat who can do multiple things on the field.
3-10 - Dre Moore (DT, Maryland) - #2 DT, who with Keamoatu makes a very large interior.
3-28 - Jermichael Finley (TE, Texas) - A TE who can stretch the field is a wonderful asset.
4-10 - Mario Manningham (WR - Michigan) - A 3rd receiver on the team who will eventually replace Muhammed.
6-15 - Alex Brink (QB, Wazzu) - Developmental QBs are always worth the draft spot.
7-14 - Anthony Aldridge (HB, Houston) - A speed back compared to sproles, will return Punts and Kicks.

Guys I wanted but couldn't get:
McFadden fell to 10, but I didn't want to give up anything to trade for him.
Avery was high on my list, but I felt wasn't worth the #28, and I have Steve Smith, who fills the same role.
Rice went late second, and I didn't remember to trade up for him.

Looks like runningback by committee this season!
