No question that our D held us back this year (and yesterday). Not being able to stop the run (still perplexed about that given Baker, Hatcher, and Knighton up front -- do we really miss Paea that much?). I think part of it is that Foster and Compton have been good, but run stuffing isn't necessarily their strength. We need a little more help/depth inside.

Safety is a big need too, and CB. For the first time in forever, it seems like we're only a handful of players away from being a very good team -- G/C, S, ILB, and CB -- additions to add to what we have now. But we seem set at QB, WR, RB (I think our guys bounce back next year with better run blocking, and RBs aren't impossible to find), T, OLB, K, P, PR, KR, and TE (assuming Paul back healthy).
