re: Based on what you've seen of the defense so far this year, which positions

PRob is done and Greer is getting up there in age. CB should be our priority on defense. Don't forget that we're getting back Butler next season. At worst, I think he'll be an adequate 1 year stop gap that would allow us put off drafting an OLB/DE for another year. I'd put the order in terms of biggest need as:
CB
S
ILB
OLB
Looks like a deep draft for CB as well. I'd put OL as the top need, though. You can usually get a top 3 C in the draft in the late 2nd/early 3rd, so that's where I'd focus on getting one, hopefully re-signing DLP to be a very good backup to LG/C/RG.

I was coming to say this. CB is still in need of an upgrade. Second to that is OLB; we need someone opposite Juniah to make a stud tandem. Safety is probably third in the order.
I do agree with others that OLine is in need of upgrade, specifically Tackles. Center is next on the list. Our guards are very good, so we don't need to worry much on that front.
The good thing is that this team is very well stacked across the board, and we will mostly be drafting for depth and future replacements. This is a good position to be in, and it is how the Steelers, Pats and Colts have been consistently good over the last decade or two

All this. Although I think they'll give PRob every opportunity to return.

Agreed. If we're throwing entire team needs into the discussion I'd throw right or left tackle into the mix above the linebackers. Ideally I'd like to see Brown and Strief gone, one replaced by a free agent the other by Armstead.
