So begins another offseason, full of hope and optimism - especially now that Jerry Angelo has been shown the door. Hit the jump to check out the important NFL dates to mark in your Blackberry (just kidding, unless this is 1999).

Free Agency, without question.
There are something like a dozen FA WRs out there just waiting to get picked up. Bowe? DJax? I really don’t care that much. Gimme GOOD WRs, and I has a happy.
I'm just happy there is an offseason this year
