Reports indicate Perry Riley has been promoted to first team ILB, and I think he has a shot of doing well. He impressed in limited time last year and we drafted him to play ILB in a 3-4 so we'll see what he's got. And Mike Sellers is a free agent? I never saw any indication he was released, just heard they're moving him to TE though. I think we could still use another guard and we need to sign either Jammal Brown or Ryan Harris to fill the void at RT, but other than that we're set.

Right now our starting defense projects like this:

Bowen - Cofield - Carriker
Orakpo - Fletcher - Riley - Kerrigan
D. Hall - Atogwe - Landry - Wilson, unless they sign another corner.

Only holes we have left to fill are RT, possibly another guard, and maybe Braylon Edwards if they're still interested in him? Doubful on Edwards but you never know.

rogers and marshall are the only possible CB starters, and i think we already made our choice there, though we'll probably want a depth guy like buchanon, just in case barnes etc don't work out.
RT = brown, OG = lutui (mainly as depth/competition, the starting OG market is pretty dry right now unless you want a 330 pounder, which isn't mike's style).
at LB you probably want a vet as both competition and failure/injury insurance, cause we saw what happened when we were short OL guys and started pulling them off the street and starting them... ugly. just like harrison or hoke would be purely depth, i think there's still 5-7 more vets coming in that way at vet min to ~2.5mill/year.

the only big signing left might be a modest b edwards deal, but honestly, a loser with 14 other WRs might not be super attractive and donte/gaffney/AA/hankerson will be fine as our #2-5 if that's what we end up with. Though we'll have to keep 6 WRs either way, since donte can only play about 6 games in a year (fragile).
