It's coaching and QB1 though that make everything feel better for the long haul. I don't see this team swinging for the fences just yet.

They landed some base hits in free agency last year, now, they have to land some homeruns in this draft and figure out who to keep and let walk that can be potentially backfilled by rookies from last year stepping up and the previous year's class stepping up into year three. Where things really should click.

They need to have the same approach Seattle had in last year's off season during their draft. Pick three areas of need and double down on it. They needed better secondary play, pass rush and pass protection. So, they drafted Bryant and Woolen at CB, Cross and Lucas at OT and Mafe and Smith at DE. They made one big splash effort early with Walker III at RB.

Our approach needs to be really no different. Double down at Guard/Center, double down at CB/Nickel CB and double down at Defensive Tackle/End. Obviously not every player you take will be a major hit in year one, but, it's a good practice to have. The "splashy, early" pick for me would be in RD2 where they probably draft a Tight End early just to make up for the fact that the entire room is gutted by April. With hopefully Engram tagged and we still have Farrell.
