Top 3 remaining needs?

Here's my thoughts,

# 1 LG, The biggest loss of talent this offseason has been Norwell. Sirls is likely the lead candidate to start at this point but I don't think the team wants to bank on that. 

# 2 WR, Current top 5 are Funchess,Smith, Wright,Samuel and Byrd. Funchess is a free agent next year and  it would be nice to be pro-active in the event he gets overpaid elsewhere. Even if Funchess is retained long term, this is not a strong looking bunch for right now or the future. Would love to see a drafted player challenge Funchess for the # 1 spot.

# 3 # 2 RB, I could have easily listed any position in the secondary here. However it looks like we have sufficiently replaced the 2 departing players (Worley and Coleman) with Cockrell and Searcy. It's not going to be an all star cast but we arguably have one of the top front 7's sitting in front of them to help balance out their shortcomings. 

With Stewart gone, theres a big opening for someone to carry the rock. He led the team with 198 attempts.  Cam actually had more carries than Mccafrey last year (139 vs 117).  Mccaffrey only averaged 3.4 ypc last year, so I don't believe giving him more carries is a good idea. CAP only carried it 18 times last year so I doubt he's thought of as the answer.

As of now..

FS

RB

TE

OL

DE

Pretty much this...I like the signings today as they give more freedom in the draft...I think before we were almost bound to go S...CB early, now we could even go RB or TE early... and still address the secondary

I would move TE ahead of RB but yeah 

We need both. BUT #2 RB will touch the ball more. A lot of the playoff teams use 2/3 backs. A #2 TE here won't have nearly the impact of a #2 RB. You could easily see 10+ carries a game from your back up RB. No way your back up TE get close to those touches, UNLESS Olsen gets hurt.
