I was thinking about some of the holes the Cards are facing and how it is challenging to find enough quality in the free agency.  As I pondered some possible solutions I reallized that 15 pounds could have a drastic impact on the Cards' future.  Branch has habitually come into the season over weight.  If he could shed 15 pounds or more and put his natural skills to work then the Cards would have a solid tandem at NT, instantly removing depth issues on the DL.  And if John Lott could perform some miracle and add 15 pounds to Highsmith we also then have a solution to Dansby and the ILB.  If Highsmith's knee heals and if Branch's attitude improves then a shifting of around 15 pounds would turn two athletes into solid additions to the Cards' future.  And it only takes a change of 15 pounds.  Any thoughts?
