QB: We won't get another QB, Brees will get an extension in the offseason and we'll roll with McCown/Grayson at back up

RB: In theory we shouldn't need any. Ingram has been playing as well as he can behind our terrible o-line. Payton has got to find a way to get Spiller more involved, unless there is an attitude/off field issue he will be back. Khiry could be back unless another team throws starter money his way, but no other team should want to do that with his injuries in a part time roll there is no way he could survive being a feature back. Murphy is still developing.

WR: I agree 4, Cooks & Snead are obvious locks but after that everything needs to be upgraded. We need a true #1 with some height, or that just at least plays bigger than his actual size.

O-line: 2 guards, Lelito/kelemete can be back as backups only. Armstead/Peat will be our tackles, & Unger our center

CB: 4, Breaux/Lewis are the only ones that should be guaranteed a spot next year. We need a true #1, Breaux shows flashes but isn't consistent enough, and Lewis another year older with another injury

LB: 2/3 depending on what kind of defense we want to run. If we run 4-3 then we need 2 OLB's (Kikaha is 3-4 OLB), if we run 3-4 then we need another ILB & OLB, maybe Tull can step up

D-line: Need a run stuffer as well as edge rusher

We have several holes on this team, we will have to hit better on our FA's, and hit on our draft picks again like we did last year to make a run next year. We are currently I think $4M over the cap, which while bad but is still better than we have been the last 2 years I believe, but it still hard to get that many pieces with such a tight cap. Brees will have to be signed to an extension or released/traded to have any chance. Browner should be cut, even if we pay him $4M we will still save like $1M
