    Keep those pass rushers fresh. Really want a load at DT to push that pocket back. I do think there are DT’s in the draft that can make a difference. We are still very thin at CB and Safety, but with the kind of pass rush, especially if Demeco can blitz a little more this year, getting beat over the top shouldn’t happen too much. Would love Cooper/Fisk in second trade up (utilizing next year’s draft) to 2nd for best wr available. BPA rest of way. Sign another cb/safety in Fa. Wouldn’t be surprised if they go after an OT in the third if they don’t trade up. Howard is a real concern.

    Great signing, and another huge sigh of relief from DeMeco. Now he gets to rotate that pass rush as often as he'd like. Now we can focus on getting that space eating, pocket moving DT in the draft while still looking to FA for CB/S help. The defense is really going to be fun to watch this year.

    Yes sir!!! Meco will do a helluva job with Barnett and Mario. Now go sign Nelson.

    I bet we run Pitre back and assume this last season was just an off for him…it all felt really out of character, and I watched him play a ton at Baylor.

    At FS…not sure…i bet that’s a priority in the draft

    hes Safety 1, but teams seem to not care much about the safety spot , so safety 1 could go in mid 2nd maybe

    You don’t like Pitre who can’t tackle, Ward who can’t stay healthy, and Murray and Lonnie Johnson?

    Love Barnett signing.

    Would somehow love to get McConkey and Sweat in rd.2, even if trading up had to happen. Sign X. Howard in FA if he's healthy, he said he wants to be a Texan. Plus bring Q. Diggs home. There should be plenty of FA money to get these deals done.

    They will sign somebody in FA. High end Simmons, Lower end Q. Diggs. Both would be upgrades.
