OLB/pass rusher -- Got one. A second quality one would be nice, and I still want that, but even without AD we have TBC/Cunningham/Crable/JAG (Woods)/JAG (Ninkovich). The second one is a lesser need we're likely (not certain) to miss out on.
ILB -- I wasn't convinced this was a big need, but anyhow we're stocked now.
WR -- Ditto.
DB -- Ditto.
True 3-4 DE (probably conversion) -- Big need. Hard to meet in this draft (or, admittedly, any other). But so far they've clearly passed on some guys who might have been interesting gambles.
TE -- They got a top one. A second one is a very debatable need, given the roster overload at WR.
RB -- Not a big need, but it would be nice to get a young back better than BJGE, whether a power back or a Faulk type. One of the lesser "needs" we're likely to miss out on.
P, FB, backup QB -- That's for Day 3, if they take one at all. May not have ammo for quality fliers at all the positions. Big whoop.
OL -- Not a need at all IMO. We can fill the roster nicely w/ returnees. I understand many folks here disagree.
NT -- If this is a need, then a bunch of other guys are DEs in training, and the need there is less than I thought.
K, LS -- Not a need.
KO Returner -- McCourty, Tate, Maroney et al. say Hi.
Punt Returner -- We can muddle through fine with what we have.
