Signed Tramon Williams, 2 year deal
Actually looked and he played pretty well last year for Arizona. Still need help in the secondary. So what do we do in the 1st round?
This from a couple weeks ago in the other thread.
So for the rest of FA and draft...needs?
Depending on Bulaga...tackle and guard are needs. Talk of one of the top guys in the first round. Doesn't seem like a bad pick...its not flashy, but top 15 OL seem to do pretty well. Past several years...scouting has done well also though with those later round interior linemen (granted...how much of the personnel dept is still left). Could we not have talked Cleveland into Joe Thomas with that Randall trade?
ILB...Im still pretty big on Roquan Smith out of Georgia. Size may be the question. But if he is there at 14...I would not be sad at all seeing him picked to go with Martinez...not sure they stick with Jake Ryan as a starter...so I expect this position to be addressed at some point likely in the draft. Ryan may start the year if they don't take a guy in the early rounds...but may be pressed out of duty by a rookie. Will Cichy be ready? Always fun to see a Wisconsin guy come to GB. Kid has heart...but definitely injury history that isn't great...later round prospect?
OLB...seems like some talent here in this draft. Harold Landry gets a lot of talk. I think there are some guys here whether its 1st round or first 3 rounds...having those top picks in the 4th and 5th now are nice too. Id too love to see Clay restructure. Still makes plays...but not as many as that contract dictates. Perry has spurts of really good play...and is solid but not just flat out stud. What will Biegel bring in the offseason and preseason? Could see this addressed with more than one pick...almost anywhere in the draft.
Secondary...Burnett gone? Have HaHa and Jones so they won't overpay Burnett...but D has looked different when he isn't in there. With Randall gone...they need bodies here bad. I don't see them spending big in FA here...but would expect a veteran of some sort brought in as well as draft picks. Another strong possibility for 1st rounder here. I like Josh Jackson's physical tools for sure...Ward out of OSU as well despite his size. And Jaire Alexander...if his injuries are behind him. All possible 1st round guys there at 14.
Receiver...probably later round picks...don't see them going there early.
As much as I like Roquan Smith and Evans from Alabama at ILB...not sure we can afford to go there early. Ryan, while not great, is serviceable and Im not sure we have that at other positions.
I think it almost has to be Corner or OL in the 1st?
