re: What does the offense need to be great

We need a RT and a good receiver.
Zach Strief played poorly down the stretch in my opinion, he's a free agent, and he's getting older. His pass protection and run blocking are both subpar, and at this point he should only be a swing tackle. Finding a solid RT that excels in run blocking should be important. As Drew gets older, we're going to need to run the ball more. What's best is that this position can be addressed in the middle rounds.
Armstead is going to be a fixture on the left side for years.
As for WR, I don't think we need a guy to step in and be our new No. 1. Colston is still the guy there as he had a great run towards the end of the season. Plus, Kenny Stills will be even better, Morgan should be back, and Nick Toon might finally put it all together (even though that's a long shot). But, using a high pick on a guy like Jordan Matthews or Allen Robinson would be solid. Those guys, while not explosive, have size and run great routes.
As a bonus I would toss in a pass-catching RB. Sproles did not look himself for much of the season, and Pierre may not be able to stand much more of a beating. Both guys are on the wrong side of 30. We need productive catchers out of our backfield to operate this offense.
