After 6 Games What's Our Positions of Need?

Offensive line depth, interior defensive line, quarterback of the future?
Ed Oliver was a player that I thought before the season would be a good addition, the QB's all seem less than elite. If you were the GM who are the potential high picks on your radar?

If we're talking 1st round needs...I guess QB, LB, DE, DT, TE. Definitely shouldn't be taking OL in the 1st round to build depth though.
Still kind of early to get a good idea though. Whether or not we re-sign Okafor, Vaccaro, & Brees will play a factor. Also whether or not we cut Fleener.
Mid rounds are perfect for a WR or OL depth(especially at OG/C). There are usually some good DT's left in the 3rd round as well.
Personally I think LB is the biggest need at this point. Fortunately & unfortunately, we probably won't be picking in the top 15 again this year.

Trade our pick from the Cards for Martavis Bryant

DT, WR, TE, ILB

Von Miller does not play middle linebacker

Defense:
Linebacker - Klein and Robertson are our new shanle and Fujita, but we're missing that Vilma.
Spend a 1st or 3rd
Defensive end - I'm hopeful fairley comes back, but Okafor is really just a rental. Kikaha isn't an Allen guy. Hendrickson and Muhammad are very raw, so it'd be hard to pass on a big name guy of we had the chance.
Spend a 1st or 3rd
Offense:
WR or TE - we need someone to pair with Thomas. Cooks would have made this wonderful, because they complement each other well. All while finding a receiving TE can change the vertical dynamic. Fleener, snead, Coleman, and Ginn are all limited and do their roles well, but we need a game changer
Spend a 3rd or later
OL - kelemete is a solid backup, he can go anywhere which is amazing. But look at the future and Unger is the easiest to upgrade.
Spend a 3rd/4th on a center and I think I'll be okay with it.
1st round should go to defense again.

Agreed. The only way I could see us going offense is if we cut Fleener, & our TE target falls right into our lap. This is also assuming we don't sign a F.A. to replace Fleener.
I would say QB, but unless we trade up...we probably won't be able to take our target imo. Especially if the draft is like the 2017 draft where teams reach & trade up to get one.
As of right now, it's definitely looking like a defensive pick. Namely LB & DE imo.

Darnold's draft status has slipped in my opinion due to the turnovers, could be there midway through the first. Baker Mayfield if he drops to the 2nd or 3rd round? Don't know how I feel about Arden Key at this point. Calvin Ridley?

Oakafor is a FA. We need a WR and CB depth is an issue. Also, you can’t have enough OL depth either. Need the QB of the future too.
I wouldn’t go with OL or QB in first round unless someone fell to us. I’d take BPA at DE, WR or CB.

Also, we need a KR/PR!

Edge, WR, LB

I'd like to see a little more interior pressure as well.
