I wouldn't draft another DE or OLB or even ILB high this year.

If the Skins decide not to go NT then trade back last first early 2nd and then go RB G CB if that is how they grade out.

Our front 7 was gashed last year.

In fact, we were 29th in DVOA against the run: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef

There were only 3 teams worse than us.

We need top shelf talent at all positions in our front 7.

The Skins suffered after injuries before that D was coming on. A guy like Payne and the defense is almost elite.

Didn't you just make the best argument that the depth on the d line isn't good enough, making it a need?

You know we have two edge guys under contract right now?

You don't draft depth in the first round.

You're thinking one dimensionally. A first round talent would start and one of the scrubs we started last year would back him up.

Our front seven sucked, 1st round talent in our front seven, NO MATTER WHERE, would make a huge difference.

You said a little more than that.

You persist in seeing the glass as half empty. I choose to be more positive and to see it as half full. We have a number of good young players who are only going to get better. Yes, we need more good players, but no team has all the depth they would like to have.

Also, and I feel really weird saying this, I think the FO is going about things the right way nowadays. I think we can become contenders soon. I don't feel like going through position by position and player by player opinions right now but suffice it to say that I have a much higher opinion and belief in a number of the players you mentioned than you do.

We're not yet done in FA and I expect that we'll have a good draft, so there's no telling how much we can upgrade our talent at this point. I'm hoping for the most possible off-season success.

If they sign Hankins they may go all depth.
