1 Trade down, they must get more picks, a trade down is going to happen, not sure when but I am almost sure they will trade down in the '23 draft.
2 draft a WR, just looking at roster, I think KO will need to add at least 1 WR that has the upside of a WR 2 or 3.
3 draft a CB, Again the curent dept chart screams that at least 1 CB that may need to play in '23 will be drafted.
4 Cook and or Z Smith will be traded or released. While Z could be forced to stay and play under his contract, Cook needs to either take a real pay cut or be will be gone. Look at the NFL, RBs are not getting this money anymore and with his age he cannot play under his '23 contract. Look no further than Aaron Jones and his restructure to stay in GB and why he agreed.
5 A LB will be taken in this draft... I know, not a huge leap of faith, but they need some depth and a hopefully can get a LB that has some upside and not just a ST player.
6 QB, while I am not sold on them using a top pick at QB, they need to add someone at the most important position on the roster. I know they are doing do dilagence, and they have to be prepared for anything that could happen next week.
Just my thoughts, what do you think you know???
So KAM is going to be filling a lot of needs with post-draft free agents. That's going to be disappointing because they aren't prospects we've been reading about for 4+ months who seem to have boundless future potential, but it's pretty certain to happen. If some of the player trades being suggested do happen, it's even more likely because the salary savings this year can buy some of the B-level FAs who will be more eager to get on a roster before rookies start taking those reps in OTAs.
... and neither is this Chris guy.
