I'm a little weary of making a big splash and would prefer we tweak the smaller holes in our lineup (depth, backup G).
Generally it's the boosting of the bottom six trades that teams that go deep make. The Cullen type trades. Or Brassards.

That's why the Nyquist or Johansson option appeal to me. They'd both be options to shore up the 3RD line IMO. But can play I'm the top six if needed. Good depth acquisitions help teams go deep.
