Other than Westbrook, I don't think that there is a single player that could be considered a playmaker on the offensive side of the ball. The overall WR talent is very poor and the lack of a pass catching TE is also pretty glaring. The offensive line will obviously have to be dealt with as well, especially on the depth side.

I'm still holding out hope that they let Wash go and bring in a different coordinator on the defensive side of the ball. Regardless of the offensive struggles, the defense just didn't get the job done this year and I think Wash played a big role in that.

In case I was not clear in my opening post, I want more than just an identification of the team needs in your responses to me.

I want to know how you plan to address those needs.

Which QB do you want?  How do you plan to get him?  If it's a rookie, do you feel it necessary to have to trade up above Oakland, Tampa and the Giants to get him?  If so, how much are you willing to give up?  If not, what happens if one of those teams takes your guy before you?  Do you have more than one guy?  More than two that you are willing to take in the first round?  If your QB is gone and there are no first round plan B's at QB, do you wait until the 2nd round?  Do you trade back into the bottom of the first?  If, for whatever reason, you don't end up with a QB by the 2nd round pick despite the obvious need at the position, are you a bad GM?

How do you get the WRs to just "average" status (to say nothing of "good") from "very poor?"  If it's "obvious" that QB and OL will have to be dealt with, the lack of a TE is "glaring", along with the WRs being "very poor" what's the order of priority?  At what point in the draft should you not expect to land a starting caliber player?  How does that impact the analysis, considering we could have two possible starting spots open along the OL and possibly now at RB with Fournette?

Where does defense fall?  If an absolute defensive stud somehow falls, are you a bad GM by ignoring the obvious and glaring needs and taking the clear BAP, or do you continue to let the stud defender fall?
