Team needs after day 2.

Looking at the team, I only see 2 glaring weaknesses:
We are awfully thin at boundary corner. We have plenty of guys who can play the slot, but if we suffer an injury to lattimore or jackrabbit, oh lawd.
Like boundary corner, we have good first line talent at coverage LB. kiko and anzalone can cover, but if they go down, it could get ugly. We don’t know what we have in kaden Ellis, so that could be a pleasant surprise. Baun looked adequate during the season but during senior bowl practices he was literally tripping over his own feet.
If we avoid the injury bug, we are solid. If we suffer a key injury to CB or LB, we could be really fricked.

Eli Apple or darqueze dennard for a boundary corner
Nigel Bradham, Hassan reddick, Alec olgetree for lb depth

Maybe a wide receiver would be another addition if the right player in the right spot.

We'll see if Larry Warford gets dealt to get a pick tomorrow.

I’d say we still need a backup QB, another WR, DT, and CB
But all those positions are like 3rd and 4th string so we are in a good spot.

I think we are fine at lb now
I think the biggest need is a corner

I don't see LB being an issue. You only need 2 guys 67-75% of the snaps. Davis, Anzalone, Alonso, Baun, Robertson, and Ellis are more than good to cover that.
Backup outside corner is a concern but also not a need (call it a very high want). PJ and PRob have played there (though I REALLY hope neither has too as they are vastly better nickels and struggle greatly outside) so we wouldn't be 100% fricked. Just 63%.
I don't see anything else even close to a need. We will get a 3rd QB but that's more a formality than a need. WR is okay for this year (Sanders is a legit 2 and Smith is fine as a 3). 4th HB is also a formality.
Everywhere else has depth.
