It really does not have to be. We will be relatively good cap space in 26 compared to previous seasons.

I count 9 positions that HAVE TO UPGRADE.
3 biggest being QB, WR1, TE1. QB may already be on the roster.
2 starters hopefully from draft.
6 have some potential challengers on roster currently, but can add those with free agents and/or other draft picks.

QB-Shough should be starting now to see what we have in him
RB-same. Kamara is virtually untradeable due to contract & net return. Miller & Neal are good spell backs
TE1-Need to upgrade. Nobody on current roster should be in contention for TE1 next season
WR1-Need to upgrade. Trade Olave for whatever you can get so we don't pay him the $15M 5th yr option we picked up. WR-2 Shaheed, WR-3 Vele, then Tipton, Polk and others battling for the remaining spots
LT-Banks is a good start, hope he solidifies himself
LG-Penning hopefully comes back plays at least average, then maybe resign him to a 1yr deal on a decent price.
C-McCoy is good
RG-Upgrade, Ruiz needs to be cut.
RT-Fuaga is good. He is the man when not injured

DE-Young is good, but need another challenger
DE-Granderson is good, but need another challenger
DT-Bresee is good, but need a younger run stuffer. Hopefully Broughton can bounce back from injury next season.
DT-Shepherd is not good, need to upgrade. Hopefully Boyd can step up during the season to see what he's got.
NT-Godchaux is good but getting older
LB-Davis needs to upgrade, he's showing his age
LB-Werner needs to upgrade, need a playmaker. Maybe Stutsman can be that guy
CB1-Upgrade. McKinstry is a good #2 & Taylor slot. Maybe Riley can get some PT this season to see wht he's got
S-Reid good, continue to see what Sanker has
P-Kroger is good
K-Upgrade from Grupe.
