re: What are the positions of need for this years recruiting class?

Everyone differs with the exception of DE and DT being #1. Huge needs at both of those spots.

Just my take

1 DE-likely losing 4
2 DT-need depth and took none last year
3 TE-we have no threats
4 QB-we have nothing close to a sure thing
5 S-losing Reid likely and Loston can't stay healthy.Young
6 OL-always need 3-4
7 WR-we have depth but need as much talent as possible
8 CB-likely losing Mathieu and Simon and need more depth
9 LB-not a need really but never hurts to take 1-2
10 RB-could take none and be fine but I always like at least 1
