I may have missed someone, but I do this to help me see it, so I thought I would share.  Let me know if you see a mistake or want to make a suggestion.

I’d put Center as a priority need. There’s no way Austin Corbett is plan A at center. If they don’t add one in FA they will definitely draft one.

I thought long and hard about that, but we do have an established lineman there--Lemme see what everyone else says, but I see your point--is it a top 10 need?  I figure we have the picks and room to address about 10 needs. But they did not just pay tons for 2 guards to have a weak link at C.

Center is definitely a need. Corbett could be a decent option or maybe he has trouble. Either way we're a single injury away from having a serious question mark at a very important position.

 

[Bear Hands]

Starting RB that can catch is a need in my book. Not one for a high investment, but we shouldn’t shy away if one is there R3-4

DB and LB are very thin,worrying thin

[CPF4LIFE]

DE/OLB is more of a need now then WR. Good lord 

[Billy Goat]

I think quality of depth is important to note in this kind of thing. I mean we have two bodies at center but Corbett is a complete unknown and if he were to get injured you wouldn't want Mays starting for a prolonged period.

[Panthero]

Looks pretty close to me. 

Based on this I think we target the following in free agency still.

Corner, edge, and center. Maybe a safety. Brady and Austin become the two backups for the whole line.

That whole defense looks pretty rough. We are about 1-2 injuries away from being in shambles.

Hopefully we aren't done in free agency yet.

No, but if you had 10 players considering our situation across the board, is C a top 10?  While C is an uncertainty, we have indisputable needs for starters in the following areas:

Starter Needs

Edge

CB

SS

WR

TE

I am not disagreeing with you, but we also need depth a ILB, CB, CB, RB, FS. so is a position with an established OL and even a backup in year 3 still that big of a need?  Every team has its weak spots--I see the point being made

I know--this bothers me--why spend $$$$ on 2 guards and have a C by default?  Listening to everyone, man this roster is bare.  Everyone is making good points.

This scared me.  I realize we have more free agency, the draft, and then even undrafted free agents---I still do not see how they are going to field a decent team===and then there is the QB question mark at best.
