What 5 positions do we need to improve on next year in your opinion? This can be via the draft or FA. We all know BB will go a different route but
My picks are below...
1- CB
2- WR
3- LB
4 -SS
5 -WR

Thoughts..........

WR must be quite a need if it is listed twice... if Samuel or Graham are signed then this list may change but I sit it as:

1a) CB & 1b) ILB
2) WR
3) TE (assumes no Graham)
4) S
5) Depth everywhere else

We need 2 WR's imo....
If Brown retires how many WR's would that leave us with? I think its a safe bet to say Most agree we have one of the worst WR's group in the league.
Do we even have enough if we want to run a 4WR offense?

I believe that this is the same list as we had last year, and the year before.

We have Light, Kaycur, O'Callaghan and Britt. The question is whether we have a dependable LT. If not, this is by far the #1 need.

You can't draft a LT with the #1, unless you know he'd be better than Light then.

How many WR if Brown leaves?

Jackson
Gaffney
Caldwell
Childress
Kight

Am I forgetting someone?

Doubt they need a WR high. I hope they sign Bennett of Tenn. Shouldn't be too expensive.
