We are going to have to move Dalton's salary for sure. The thing that has me nervous is if we Tag AJ and he gets hurt again or we
overpay AJ and Mixon so we cannot make the right moves for our O-line and Linebackers. The weaknesses are obvious and if there 
was a season to move on from AJ it would be this year with the depth in this Draft at WR.

That being said, if we handled it right and gave AJ a multi year incentive laden contract. Paid Mixon what he is worth which RB's 
are not worth near what they once were and went out and got either an O-lineman or a LB or both in FA we would be sitting pretty.

But the latter is a bit far fetched sadly as well.

I really think the team should be looking to draft AJ's replacement in this draft, even if they sign him, as this would also provide insurance for Ross missing his usual large portion of the season or just not showing up in games.

With regards to Dalton's salary they may not trade him until the draft and I can see Mike Brown saying that Dalton is still on the team in March so we don't have the salary room to play in free agency. He's that thick in the head.

As you said, the weaknesses are obvious. This draft has depth at WR and OG and we can get good value at the positions.

That leaves LB in free agency, but will they actually make a good move????
