    My 2 cents:

    I don’t know if Quinn is going out. He will be in his 8th year in 2018. Assuming he can still play after 2 injured years, the 8th year is not so bad. Ware retired after his 12th year. Julius Peppers was still productive last season at OLB in his 15th year.

    I would like to see a dedicated DE to play opposite Donald on the DL.

    But CB and OT are high on the list too. So is safety since they probably won’t keep both Joyner and Alexander and depending on the cost may not be able to keep either. Quite possibly LOLB since we don’t know how long Barwin would be around or how fast if at all Ebukam develops.

    They could use a center, maybe, depending on Eldrencamp, but Kromer has a history of getting centers low in the draft if not developing UDFAs.

    That leaves space for a 1st round pick who is BPA (within reason depending on the positions we’re talking about). The 1st rounder could be any one of the above, or other positions such as TE, WR, or maybe another lineman.

    in order i think their needs will be.

    1. pass rushing outside linebacker
    2. 3-4 lde
    3. center
    4. defensive back (cb/s)
    5. tight end
    6. offensive tackle

    but yeah. bpa. for sure. so for example. likely you’re not going to pick a center if you’re in the top 10. even though it’s high on your list of needs.

    my bet is that first round pick will be one of the following. pass rusher, 3-4 defensive end, or defensive back. best available.
