Is MLB still a huge need?

[Jeremy Igo]

Is MLB still a huge need or has Carter shown you enough to be satisfied with him next season?

It’s still a need but the biggest need is QB

[Floppin]

I think Carter has shown enough that I'm not concerned about addressing that position immediately above other positions.

We need talent across the board.

On defence alone we need a starting CB, a starting 3Tech, and a starting S (if they're planning on moving Chinn to S full time) before you even look at our LB corps.

If Chinn moves to S you need two LBs - Carter is 'fine', which is to say you'd replace him in a heartbeat if you could. 

[LinvilleGorge]

No.

QB, CB, and OT are our biggest needs IMO. I'm not sure if Carter is the long-term answer or not, but he's decent enough that it isn't a desperate need. It definitely was when we were still playing Whitehead.

[Rags]

I think Carter is enough we don't need to do anything drastic. But need a bigger sample size.

MLB is not that important and we have a decent player there now. Whitehead will be gone next season, even though Rhule said he played a good game before benching his ass.

The worst thing we could do is spend our #6 or so pick on a MLB (Parsons). My head would explode.

We need an amazing QB who can become the face of this franchise. Passing is what matters most in today's NFL. LBs and other defensive players take a back seat to the QB and his TD scorers, and to a lesser extent the o-line.

Plug in any halfway decent LBs who are not mentally deficient (like Whitehead) and everything is fine. 

Once we have a QB and high flying offense we can look at maybe making a luxury pick like LB if one falls into our lap in the later rounds.

We need young LBs who are poor and ready to destroy their bodies to make 6 figures a year. When they get older and busted up dump them for some new ones.

The premier players should be the guys who catch TDs and the QB, and to a lesser extent the o-line.

Carter isn't anything special, but there are bigger needs.

[KillerKat]

If we do anything to our defense, it should be built from the outside-in this time.

[PhillyB]

less of a need, still a need if we're building a strong defense. carter is okay but he doesn't strike me as a guy you build a team around.

i would love to pull the trigger on a guy in the second round if someone worthwhile slides to us.

taunt more imo

Oline is by far a bigger/the biggest need. Paradis is all that’s left coming back next year...lol

now resign/tag Moton and it looks slightly better. Still left with no gaurds and no LT

But draft wise, we are able to address QB and I’d say it’s more the most important need

next up S

then LB

4th on the list but on a 4-12 team that’s still a big need

[Untouchable]

Carter looks like he's moving it down the board but it's still a need. Will eventually want more coverage ability at the position.

OT, CB, 3-tech and iOL all more critical.

[Mr. Scot]

Either way, let's be real about the defense.

I feel fairly certain that if our quarterback wasn't such a huge issue, the overriding topic of discussion would be the fact that our defense just made Drew Lock look amazing.
