[QUOTE="Fredrik87, post: 877098, member: 14849"] I don't consider TE a top 5 need and didn't consider it one at the time of the draft either. Also a lot of people have been saying Deguara is a FB which if that is the case then he doesn't fill in any holes at TE wether you consider it a top 5 need or not; and if he is to be considered as a regular TE then I have to question drafting a TE who in his best year only posted 500 yards, in the top 3 rounds yes he is a good blocker but purely blocking TE's don't have that kind of value in todays NFL. And I've already said on another thread I consider Martin to be a decent pickup but not a great one and certainly not good enough of one to make up for the rest of the draft. I am going to state what most people would disagree with but I think this draft is worse long term than it is short term we didn't draft a single CB, DL, OT, or WR if a position is a need this year and it wasn't addressed it isn't likely to be fixed next year so WR, DL and OT will all likely be needing upgrades next year and CB is a upcoming need, also looking at the fact that every iOL we drafted this year was a 6th round pick assuming one of those guy's will be a capable starter next year is optimistic meaning Center or Guard could also be a upcoming need. And if Bahktiari somehow doesn't get resigned that would be another huge hole to fill. Now because of our lack of cash if even the majority of these positions are needs next year and that is the more likely scenario than we'd have to fix most if not all of them in the draft unless Gute has a incredible draft he would not be able to fix all of those holes. Even if we assume he has a good draft no GM bats 1000 so the odds of filling that many roster holes especially at such high value positions like OT, CB and WR that tend to go of the board fast are very low.
