We had $3 left for our last pick, Kaeding. And I would have preferred to spend $1 on a kicker and $1 on a defense while using the other $4 or so earlier in the auction on one RB that is a bit more of a sure thing. I like Kevin Smith - he's got no competition for the job. And I think Thomas Jones will be better than he was last year. But the collection is very hit or miss. That said, we achieved a quarterback that should be set for a great year and two or three elite-level wide receivers, depending on Johnson's health and Evans' ability to make it come together for an entire season. So, we gave ourselves a shot. We'll have to monitor the waiver wires aggressively to try and find this year's Ryan Grant or Earnest Graham. Not the best team we've ever assembled, but it's how you finish, not how you start.
