New needs after FA signings

[Ritzarmy]

Before FA signing we needed OL, WR, ILB, FS, CB, DE

We resigned WR Moss and LB Riley. Tagged Rak. Then we added WR Roberts, OG Lauvao, and LB Hayward.

So it looks like we still need secondary help and more help on the o-line. Needs now: FS,OL,DE/DT,CB

We also need another ILB. Hayward probably isn't it. But Safety is our number one hole. Two holes, actually.

On offense we still need a WR, OT (possible upgrade)


On defense we still need one starting safety, one starting ILB, DE (possible upgrade), and CB (possible upgrade).


If we are talking draft, you take BPA at any of these positions.
If we are talking FA, you take best value at these positions.

we have yet to make a big splash in FA. Is it Talib, Collins, or Byrd?

 

[gkekoa]

Why does it need to be any of them?

 

[martinez]

i dont think we will make a big splash

i dont think we will make a big splash

Sometimes that's the way to go

 

[Skin'EmAll]

I will say we've proven we can be successful offensively with little. Defensively what we have done(with nothing) is incredible, I'd like to see us with an elite piece or another above average one. fyi: obviously i'm NOT talking about last year defensively

Just going with guys available according to Bill Polians Free agent tracker.

FS- Sign Mike Adams and Major Wright
OT- Sign Charles Brown
LB- Sign Jon Beason
DE- Sign Mike Neal

Collins still available. This would shore up the tackle spot.

I like Collins but reports are saying he will either stay in Cincy or go to Tennessee.

 

[deanpet21]

I cant believe we didn't sign Mitchell. OT and S are still huge needs. I guess they will be addressed in the draft assuming we sign Graham and Smith.

 

[j_y19]

Heard on the radio that mitchell had no interest in coming here.

 

[deanpet21]

well we got Bruce Campbell. lol. what is going on??? I guess no faith in Compton

 

[hokiehi21]

ahh no more Terps!

I don't like the sounds of any of them.

 

[j_y19]

Beason would be OK. Id still draft an ILB even if we sign him.

 

[Ritzarmy]

I don't like the sounds of any of them.

Adams and Wright I am saying we sign for a 1-2 year deal so we can get our sophomore safeties healthy and more experienced.

 

[gkekoa]

I'd rather resign Merriweather and let the young guys learn on the field.

Don't know that it changes our needs that much. I don't think drafting a guard was too high on the priority list already so the only real change would be to not draft a slot wr. But I don't think it changes our need for a big wr on the outside.
