Depends on who is avaalable. One of our guards is gone next season (I'm leaning towards Evans). We also could use a legit #2 CB and a #1 WR. I'd rather roll with Lofton/Hawthorne and get a legit 6'2 flanker at WR. Hopefully White/PRob continue to play well and Baptiste steps the frick up and we don't need a CB. Problem with the next draft is that it looks like it's Cooper in a tier of his own and not much after at WR. We've gone from one of the best WR classes I've ever seen to one of the worst. CB's are solid this draft, but not great. No idea about guards, but we usually find our interior OL talent in the middle rounds.

As of this moment, with what is available in the next draft and what we have currently, I would trade down and load up on 2nd/3rd round picks and draft 2 or 3 interior OL players + a WR early on.

There is a TON of OL talent in this draft.

I know OTC tells me its going to be Evans, but for some reason I see us keeping both through 2015. It looks like whatever Evans had going on, its better now since the bye week. It also makes more sense to keep them if their play continues to be at this level, that way the rookie doesn't get thrown to the dens and we become SOL if its worst case.

In 2016:
Grubbs: 10.3mil cap (7.3mil savings, 3.0mil dead)
Evans: 10.2mil cap (8.7mil savings, 1.5mil dead)

I think we still go CB in top 2 rounds, OG in top 3 rounds, and OLB in top 3 rounds. I think we may splurge on a top 4 round RB if Ingram leaves as well.

I think we are going to re-sign Patrick Robinson, who has played exceptionally well since week 1 and 2. Was it rust? Possibly, but he looks like the 2011 version since he was in the dog house.
