So far, we have added a STUD Safety, a SOLID RB, and serviceable players at CB, and LG (backup T), and QB. (We also resigned Quick and one of last years linemen, but i don't see either as likely to make the roster.) Before the draft, we will likely some additional pieces.

Basically, I'm happy because i think we've positioned ourselves to take BPA in the first few rounds of the draft. For example, we don't need to reach for a QB in the first two rounds if we don't think the ones available at our picks are of good value, because we can get by with Colt, Keenum, and a later round QB. If we don't sign an edge rusher or receiver before the draft, we may feel some pressure to reach for those, but considering this draft is full of both those positions in the first two rounds, i don't think we'd really be reaching for either position.

I agree with QB being the exception, I disagree that we are ok with Colt/Case. To be honest if that is even a competition we are doomed. Keenum should be QB1 as of today by a mile. Colt is not a starting QB, I don't see why we all can't agree on this. Case is good enough to get 5-6 wins, unless Guice becomes the next Zeke in 2019, I don't see this offense scoring a ton.
