Center is a given in Round 2 or 3. But we still need a return specialist that could play CB. Who could that be in the first 3 rounds? Punt and kickoff returns (although there aren't many of those these days)are a weakness in special teams. IMO

not if dlP is back at a team friendly deal. I'd like one to be the guy for a long time. It's just no given until free agency plays out.

why do these have to be the same person??

If Greer retires CB does become the odds on position favorite for 1st Rd IMO. Justin Gilbert OKSt lined up across from Lewis could turn this 4th ranked D into one that is talked about as dominant like the chickens, niners, or ravens recently.

Does any one really trust a 2nd or 3rd round rookie to be an upgrade to what we already have? DLP is no Pro-Bowler, but I remember when we drafted "the 2nd best Center in the draft" a few years ago, and now the guy isn't even in the NFL anymore.

Brees has about 4 years left at above-average play. Do we want to waste 1-2 of those years developing a Center? I think if we're looking for an upgrade, we're going to have to look at a vet in FA.
