If I had to guess, he means LT, LG, receiver, and safety.

FS, LT. could upgrade at DT, WR. need a CB for trading Latt later? what 4? i think salvideri plays LG, could say we need a starter there, but idk. prolly gonna resign peat unless the samoan kid from byu falls, and even then idk if they draft him. maybe paul or rosengarten?

I think these are quality starter needs:

WR
Tackle
Tackle-Fuaga
Guard
Def Tackle

We don't need a starter at any of those positions (FS, LT, DT, WR or CB). We need a LG, but probably could bring back Peat / use Udoh at that spot. Now, we are very thin at those positions, but you don't have to have a day one starter.

Its unlikely you find 4 more starters in the draft with the picks they have.

That would be considered a GREAT draft, like 2017.

Its not something they or we can rely on.

i would say that resigning peat gives us our best option at LT. we could use a boost at wr, dt, lg and cb if we're trading latt. i bring up FS because we don't have anyone that lets allen run his defense.

That looks about right. Depth is another issue. When camp starts there are always injuries and trades. And of course the big cut day where over a thousand players get cut at once. Lots of depth can be had there. And we will grab 10-15 picks after the draft in the UDFA free for all.

Would be lucky to get 2 more starters.

They are going to have to sign another linemen after the draft. That's even if they draft o line at 45.

They need a young safety, de, dt, lt, LG, and a young receiver. Probably are going to need to invest in corner to.

Yeah, there are still moves we will see after June 1. Hope we come away with some gems and a vet or two who can guide these younger ones along.

Yea counting on a mid round pick that was inactive all year to be a starter seems smart.
