At the TE position, we have a Pro Bowl TE paired along side a talented rookie TE. Lots of targets for JC.

The O-Line is a bit of a concern, however we all know Bugel can coach anybody, and I'm sure we can find O-linemen in the later rounds or even UDFAs that he can shape up to be quality back ups...(just look at Stephon Heyer)

The D-Line was a need according to the pundits last year, and well the line fared well without picking up anyone in the first round. Once again, I think depth can be addressed in the later rounds.

Finally, the DBs is the concerned that I have the most. I mean we could look once again for depth in the later rounds, however, I think the team is gambling on a healthy Carlos Rogers.

You bring up a good point which has been alluded to in the past here (by myself and SBXVII among others).

Are we (possibly) taking OL and DL later because the team is more confident in Bugel and Blache's ability to teach diamonds in the rough than they are with Hixon's ability to do the same with wide receivers?
