[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 540800"] We really can't say quite yet. There's over 4 months to the draft including the free agency period. I've said it before, and I'll say it again...Raji is likely gone in free agency, Jolly may have a career ending injury and Pickett will be 35 and has been playing with a bum knee. All 3 of these guys are unrestricted free agents with no dead cap or other obligations attached. The idea that our starting base D-line would be Datone Jones, Boyd and Daniels should send any Packer fan screaming into the night. If 2 of those 3 questionable starters from last season are not back in the fold with good medical prognoses, I'll lay dollars to doughnuts D-Line will be the top priority and WILL be the first round pick if there's any 3-4 first round talent left on the board. Put Nix, Hageman and Tuitt on your radar. After that I'd look at "best available linebacker", inside or outside, then safety. The defense is a mess. When you look at one game and say, "we need to get more physical in the middle of the D" and then look at the next game and say, "we're lacking speed and athleticism" (watch LeRoy Butler's weekly videos for a good illustration of the whipsaw), you know there's a general talent deficit.
