TE, LB, CB, DT, K, P
obviously we need a TE, 3 names have been mentioned. with only a 2nd round pick, i assume we'll sign someone for 1-2.5mill a year depending on skill. dan campbell would be the firsst choice, he'll be meeting with the giants and jets in the next two days though.
as for OL backup:
the cards tendered OG R wells low, so there's a chance to get a good backup (currently a starter) quality Guard for only a 6th round pick (which is truly worthless). that saves a pick, but starting OL tend to want 2+mill a year, so the only cheap answer would be a draft pick (and a late pick is very hit or miss, which we can't afford if we're really trying to make a run now).
CB/DT/P/K - ? depends on how much money is left and who's left. one of the 3 positions (CB/DT/OL) will be draftable and set with the 2nd pick. The 5ths and below aren't sure things at all, and while young punters (like koch) will go undrafted and be an upgrade over frost, there are no kickers in this draft class that look even average right now.
jahri evans (OG), joe toledo (OT), and gerrick mcpherson (CB) might slip into the 5th, so if we get a high 5th or 4th for ramsey, it'd definately be a good thing to have.
In the 6th there's very very little as far as standouts. ingel martin (QB) may be there, though right now that's not really a need. D Quillen will go undrafted (6'6" 4.5 WR) and he's worth a flyer, even if he'd only be #5 on the depth chart.
anyone else know of CBs/DTs worth considering still in FA? and no, clements and law aren't good answers, they're not nickel corners and we don't need starting CBs and their massive contracts.
tripplet looks gone, MK is gone.
