    Although we are on the way up, we're still a long way from being a championship caliber team. Everyone is talking about the upcoming draft and it is an important one for us. But even more important is what we do with free agency prior to the draft. We still have so many needs, especially on defense. We have needs for 2-3 CBs, a 3/4 DE, a NT, several LBs both inside and outside, and possibly a S. On offense, we have less needs but we do need a C/G, a couple of WRs, and possibly another TE. Thus, we must attack 1st the FA market so that we can strategically draft better. Remember also what position pools are deep in the draft and which are not. If we do FA right, we might even be able to afford trading out of picks to gain additional picks like we did last year. But it all starts with FA, so who do we seriously target?

    High tower, Aiken or Stills, Gilmore...

    At least put a bid down on Berry. I feel KC is going to keep trying to play Sams club with him, and end up making him walk.

    This is a strong year for CB's in both FA and the draft and we need 2 or 3 new ones, so I feel like we have a good shot at having a revamped secondary next season if we start by getting one in FA.

    The draft offers the best shot at shiney new WR. Maybe Stills is a good guy to target in FA since we do need 2-3 new players in that group.

    I would like to see us pick up a G in FA so that we can concentrate on other areas in the draft. Maybe Kevin Zeiter or TJ Land?

    Brandon Williams might be good for us at NT in our 3-4 D. What do you think?

    I have been wondering why I have not seen anyone mention this?

    Put him next to Casey and suddenly that pass rush is more consistent.

    Call me greedy but I want two of those top tier corners available in free agency (that is unless we re-structure McCourty).

    Wouldn't mind landing Calais Campbell, man was a force last year. PFF had him as the 5th best pass rusher. Like the combo of him and Casey coming off the edge .

    Looks like the Rams are going to switch to a 3-4 D. Anybody on their DL worth watching for?

    Aiken , Stills... seems like a bunch of #2's in which the Titans already have an abundance of . WR FA class this year doesn't do much for me which is why the draft may be the best chance to try and land a future #1.

    I'm still sticking to the Lattimore - Howard combo so maybe 2018 they can find a true #1 ;)

    Always easier said than done
