I see 3 areas we need to address.

CB- we need another starting cb but whos out there we can afford and are they better than the ones we have now?

DT- We signed a stop gap DT and he was injured.We drafted some young guys and given C Irvin a chance.Again I see no one out there that is much better than what we have.I dont think the likes of Tank Johnson is worth a roster spot

OT-Otah is really scaring me with his injuries.His recent knee swelling was totaly unexpected.His season ending injury was a shoulder.His presence or lack of will dictate how well we will run the ball.I have not seen who can replace his run blocking so we may need pick up someone as a stop gap if we can find one.This is a postion we need to fill given Otahs injury.

I guess it all depends on who becomes availible when the roster cuts begin but why bring in someone who is marginal at the risk of cutting a develomental player? We clearly do not have all the pieces to be conpetetive this year.

Don't think we need a 3 Tech DT ,Irvin ,McClain are good enough

#2CB Hayden- Good zone coverage guy , decent against Man to Man( might not be Healthy)

OT L.Davis can play G too

2# WR Any big name that gets cut

RT and CB are our biggest concerns. DT is not far behind though and if we dont sure up RT we are in trouble.

On that note it would be just best to cut Otah and deal with that. He is not going to ever be healthy again if he cant get back at it with a year off.

We may have to live with our cb and dt but RT is something we need to address if we are to run the ball.Even if Otah were cleared to play this guy has 2 years of rust to dust off. If we do not establish a run it will be another long year for our 2 qbs.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
