CBS sports projects Simmons post Luke.

[KB_fan]

Luke's retirement really does complicate the retool / rebuild and trying to figure out FA and draft priorities.

As of right now I'd rank our non-QB position hole urgency as follows:

DT / MLB / OL / S / CB

I am assuming we re-sign Bradberry.

Hoping Little will be healthy and develop into a solid player.

Given the paucity of veteran leaders on our D, I'm guessing they'll try to get a veteran MLB in FA (Klein? Littleton?) to pair with a rookie drafted on day 2. 

QB of course is too messy to know what will happen. I'm still hoping Cam is healthy and the team and Cam will find some win-win agreement for both sides...

Need to stock up on popcorn. This won't be a boring off-season!!

Never fails to amaze me what some people think this team needs 

Yes, I've seen draft analysts suggest WR too. (Forget who... but definitely 1 or 2 have done it).

People don’t want to give DJ credit for some reason. He was a superstar this year with pretty terrible QB play all season. So strange

Honest question here. Who on the current roster could play MLB?

How would you rank:

Carter

Kunaszyk

Smith

Could Shaq move to MLB?

If we play 4-3, I believe they will roll with shaq at MLB

I feel were closer to being a good 3-4 defense than a 4-3. In a 4-3  your back ro a year ago where the pass rush ranked near the bottom plus your without peppers and put burns in the worst possible position. Asking him to bulk up would likely make him lose that trademark speed and bend. Also ur saying f u to Irving, miller and hayes. You have more blocks for the 3-4  unless your playing to lose.

Outside of Moore we have no legitimate wideout.

Curtis Samuel is merely a gadget player.

WR is high on the gigantic list of team needs

Summary - Isaiah Simmons is a blue chip prospect with unparalleled versatility. His unbelievable length and athletic gifts make him a sensible fit for a number of positions, including MIKE, SAM, SS and a nickel LB in coverage. Simmons has explosive qualities and will be an asset vs. the run and pass alike. He's a game changing player who should be coveted as a true 3-down linebacker/hybrid defender who can be the pivotal chess piece in a weekly defensive game plan

yeah sign me up for some of that. 6'4 230... can do it all.

I agree... if Jerry Juedy is that good then I'm all for it.

Shaq wasnt 6'4 230.. closer to Derwin James than shaq, plus shaq was projected late first early second not top 5.

So where are we playing another Derwin James?

He is a box safety in GB, no?

He is literally what we thought we were gonna get outta Shaq . A guy that can literally play safety and linebacker and not be a liability at either . We could even line this guy up at d end and let him rush the passer man I’m telling you this dude is versatile . Never seen anything like it .
