There are plenty of needs obviously. But there are still some options out there. I think the only area that Ballard has potentially misstepped so far is guard. I think he should've paid Zeitler or Warford whatever it took to get them here. Our options now are TJ Lang and in-house competition.

At NT there is still Poe and Hankins. At ILB Hightower and Brown are there. There never were any premier OLB options, the best we're going to get is an Erik Walden replacement. Jabaal Sheard, John Simon, Connor Barwin (doubt it), Datone Jones. I could also see them go after a corner like Prince Amukamara or Morris Claiborne.

Overall I don't mind not overpaying some of the guys signed yesterday, minus Zeitler or Warford.

As far as Oline.... if there is any coach on this team that I trust its Philbin... maybe he sees what he needs with Clarke Haag.
