Outside of the obvious QB, with the other remaining, ugh...five picks I feel we need a NT, TE, RB, WR and (LB or FS).  Gotta get the core offensive skill players to grow together.  The nose tackle is imperative and either a ball-hawking FS or LB for the defense.

So when you all are saying, "We need a NT, I assume that you do not think Tuttle is that player.  We have McCall (340) and Roy (I do not like him, but he is big--330) and Brown could move inside to the nose (320) if we want to rush the passer. 

So if we need a Nose--we do not need another DE.  Is that what you are implying?  Not being critical, just want to hear why everyone is saying that we need a NT.

We need ILBs unless we find a prospect on the outside too good to pass up.  I'd like to develop Shaq's replacement now than try to do it the year he's released.

In my head, I have Shaq, Luvu, and Smith at ILB--with the need to add one.  On the outside, I have Burns, Haynes, and Barno with the need to add one.  I have YGM playing the 3 to 5 (depending on situation) and I have Chinn at big nickel and maybe some other spot not clearly identified in the 3-4 set.  I am simply guessing what I think they will do.

Tuttle can play across the line, but I want a hoss in the middle, he's not big enough. Also Tuttle is essentially just a two year stop-gap. McCall has the size, but can he play there?  Roy can't play it-- he doesn't have the anchor.  Dude got pushed around as a 3-tech.

I'd rather have Brown slim down and play end.

You pretty much hit the nail on the head, although I think Luvu and Smith could play inside or out.  I'd rather keep Luvu inside (savvy veteran) and let the youngster Smith chase the QB.

Me too on all counts. Roy will probably not make the team without his boy here.

Gonna be interesting to see how our defense uses the personnel.  I am struggling to get a clear image of Chinn, Luvu, and YGM--and now the DT situation you present makes perfect sense.

It wouldn't shock me if they ask Chinn to add more weight and become a permanent LB.  I think we get too caught up in Jeremy "wasting" his talents as just a LB since he's got coverage ability.  I mean, with Woods and Bell, the safety position is on lock down.  Being just the big nickle is limiting Chinn, IMO.

I see Luvu and Smith as OLB that can play inside a little.  I would like a true ILB like Jack Cambell.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
