Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
I think it's clear that we have more needs on defense than on offense. We could handle some of those needs internally just by some players getting healthy, by re-signing a player or two, and perhaps by using a couple of players differently.
If Culliver and Ihenacho recover fully, they might well be starters at CB and SS. If Galette is fully recovered and re-signs with us, he'll start at one OLB spot.
I like the idea of using Preston Smith at DT, at least on passing downs. He is 6-5 and 270 lbs. right now. He could bulk up to 290 lbs. and handle the role that Hatcher wasn't able to fulfill.
You're looking at 3 or 4 upgrades right there.
As for the draft, I think we'll go heavy on defense. That's because our greatest needs are on that side and I still do not buy into the idea that anyone actually drafts purely BPA, no matter how many times they may claim to do so. Sherff was not a BPA pick IMO.
Beyond that, we need to add playmakers on defense to get our D to the next level. Whether we find them in the draft or in FA, it makes no difference to me.
