Who would you like to pick up to buffer the roster?

I'd be fine with Conor Barwin and Mo Claiborne on cheap deals.

RB - Rex Burkhead. I actually wouldn't mind LaGarrette Blount or Latavius Murray for cheap if we don't re-sign Hightower. We need 2 more RB's...all we have right now are Ingram & Lasco. Cadet just visited the Jets, so he might be done here.
DE - Datone Jones, Connor Barwin(visits the Bengals on Monday), Jared Odrick, or Chris Long
CB - Morris Claiborne or Brandon Carr. These are the only 2 guys left that are starting caliber, so there's no point in signing anyone else. We have plenty of CB's for depth...assuming PJ is our #3 next year, Sterling Moore(F.A.), Crawley, Swann, DeVante Harris, & Webb(F.A.).

As far as our own guy...I really want to sign Tim Hightower, Darryl Tapp(he would actually be a starter if the season started tomorrow), Sterling Moore, & Justin Drescher. They will probably make the team. We have other guys, but these are the main 4 imo.

Replacing Cooks with josh Gordon and getting the 32nd pick

No real risk seeing as our O will roll regardless

I find it strange we haven't done more with the cap space we have honestly. Not even news of visits really.

I wouldn't mind Claiborne. Him with Breaux, Williams, Swann if he's healthy, Wilson, and Moore if he comes back, and the two UAFA's Crawley and Harris is a nice group of CB's. Would also free us up to to use our top 5 picks on other positions.

Pretty sad the first wave is over. This was supposed to be the Free Agency that overhauled our defense and so far we've signed two offensive players and.........wait for it.........AJ Klein. Just sign Claiborne up to lower the chances that BW Webb or Crawley have to cover Julio next year.

Claiborne for sure, and I wouldn't mind bidding for someone of his talent. Give him a prove it deal like Fairley
