I agree. Trade down, get a center and a d-lineman. Maybe another TE to compliment Cooley. Draft or steal a big third down back. Keep our receivers, if they are allowed to open up, they have plenty of talent.
There is not much of a need to make big changes to either side of the ball. If we can generate 1 more TD a game, we win most of our games. 21 points a game (minimum) needs to be an offesive goal. If you look back at our games this year, a big nasty center and a big nasty back that can power through for a yard would have made the difference between field goals and touchdowns way to many times.
To really assess what we need, we need to evaluate exactly what stopped our drives and what kept points off the board in our current system. Don't forget, even though we don't open it up a lot, our system keeps our defense off the field by using methodical long drives that eat up and control the clock. Thats part of why the defense is ranked where they are.
Keep the system, tweek it to exploit the defensive pass interference, and add power to the o-line and backfield.
