WFT Free Agency

[Scalper]

TE market has dried up, but may be some quality lower tier player.
As of now, major holes that remain are at FS and LB.
I still expect some FS to be signed, lower tier guy?, and at least one LB.
Really thin draft for TE, so maybe a low cost signing there? Moss has a big name, but is he a legit player? I don't know, but someone behind our starter needed.

Sure looks like FO plans on spending at least one of our first-four picks on LB. Del Rio and RR both played linebacker, tough to think they wouldn't like an elite thumper in middle. Assuming FS isn't a gaping liability as it has been since death of Taylor (what a tragedy, ugh), we should be tougher to pass on, meaning teams may try to pound it up middle. A thumper MLB to doll out the pain would seem necessary.

Excepting QB which is a train wreck, and perhaps TE, the only area of our roster where we don't have at least one higher-tier or impact player is LB. I expect this to be addressed in FA and in draft. I think we'll draft at least 2 LBs. It is again frightening to think of our D with a good FS and 2-3 stud LBs. I again find myself wondering about a D-focused draft.

The final note is that if our FO is serious about filling all holes and going BPA, you could get long term solutions at LT and CB even though not highest needs short term, and really set yourself up well long term, because deep draft both positions. Deep draft QB WR also. I would still love to see us hit the high leverage positions if board fall that way, to go QB,LT,CB,WR with first four picks. That would be such a smart draft from a long-term and salary cap perspective--if the board falls that way. In reality, if you throw a LB in and we hit 3 high leverage with top-4 picks, still good. You look at how limited our cap'll be long term, and how much signing CBs, WRs, QBs, good LTs, costs, you have to be drafting them long-term. That being said, sneaking suspicion our FO is going to just make our D into a monster in draft.

I also wonder if there is a QB in draft we really like but are keeping quiet about, even if not a high QB.
