[QUOTE="Pkrjones, post: 651683, member: 9982"] I'm changing my stance on ILB this offseason. Thought our in-house guys plus a 2nd or 3rd round pick would be enough of an upgrade but now don't think so. Aside from Jaylon Smith (who probably won't help in 2016 until November-ish) the guys in this draft have significant "holes" in their game, whether it's run-stuffing, instincts, or below average coverage. Don't think TT will fight for a FA top guy like B. Marshall from Denver, but maybe the next level down would still be big help. - Jerrell Freeman (Indy) - 30 yr old solid run & coverage guy. Some think he'll get $7Mil/yr. avg. or - Danny Trevathan (Den) - younger, solid guy on the rise (came back well after major knee surgery in 2014). Probably more $$ than Freeman. There is youth and potential on the roster in Ryan, Thomas and PS Bradford, so a vet FA would be a huge boost to this unit for the next few years. If only a lower rounder is taken in draft and/or no FA pickup that means TT & MM are confident in the in-house guys... just hope they all make leaps in their progress. [/QUOTE]
