No team has All-Pros at every position.

We definitely need a starting safety. Coleman is a serviceable safety, he just can't be the best DB on the field. That's a recipe for disaster.

OLB? Why? Are we assuming TD retire? Maybe he does, but if he doesn't we definitely don't need another OLB. We play nickel the vast majority of the time anyway and a rookie LB is probably not getting ahead of Shaq on the depth chart. That would really have people howling about a wasted draft pick.

We definitely need a starting caliber DE. Preferably a guy who can be or can develop into an elite pass rusher. Try to sign CJ to another cheap short term deal and have him and Ealy platoon at LDE and sign or draft a hell raising RDE.

OT? Abso-fuging-lutely. Gotta get a LT. Unfortunately, I think Oher might be done. I'm alright with Williams at RT and Remmers as a backup if we can get a good LT in here.

We definitely need to start considering life without Kalil. He'll be 32 next year and his body seems to be wearing down. Hopefully he has another 2-3 good years left in him, but we shouldn't count on in. If there's a mid-late round developmental guy who we think could develop into his replacement, pull the trigger.

Yeah, we need a #2 TE. Dickson is fuging trash. This offense would be in a world of hurt if anything happened to Olsen.

Agree on RB too. Stew is wearing down and has always been injury prone. Last year was his swan song. It was great to see him come back and have a great year, but it was fool's gold. I think CAP can be a decent #2 and I like Fozzy as a 3rd down back, but we need a new bell cow.

I like Adams quite a bit at safety too, but not sure if I like him top 10 good.

If we're sitting on the clock in the 1st round (top 10 for damn sure, maybe top 5) and Garrett, Peppers, and Fournette are gone, I'd be all for trying to trade down.

Those are my three guys right now. Garrett, Peppers, Fournette. In that order.

With Kalil, Olsen, Stewart and Davis getting up there in age... We need...

SS, FS, OLB, 2x DE, OT (possibly 2), C, TE, RB... Buck up for the long haul guys. 

Kalil and Olsen have at least a couple more years for sure, and possibly more who knows. TD seems to as well but if not we've got Shaq. Stew will be replaced by Fournette next year. Boom baby. All set on those fronts. Do need a TE2 though.

Honestly, Fournette is the pick I'm expecting as well. I think Garrett and Peppers will likely be gone. My Tar Heel QB Trubisky will probably go #1. I'm just hoping some teams might fall in love with guys who I either don't want (Cam Robinson) or guys who don't fit our needs (Jonathan Allen, Marlon Humphrey, Malik McDowell, etc.) to push guys down the board.

Garrett, Peppers, Fournette, Trade Down

That's my 1st round draft board at the moment - assuming the same coaching staff/philosophy. Now if we're gonna go with a man cover scheme then Marlon Humphrey enters the equation, I just don't see spending a top 10 pick on a CB with our current defensive scheme.

All of these issues can be solved with the draft and FA, DG better not fug it up

Like New England you mean...actually planning to replace an older valuable veteran, draft their replacement, and then move the veteran while they still have value for more draft picks  and after the backup,has gotten experience 

what a concept.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
