With Collins back and Williams knees they're gonna have to draft an OT early and probably pick up a free agent.
A FA OT is something we likely cannot afford. But I might be willing to do it if we make deeper cuts elsewhere (Mixon?). I don't know if there is a plug & play OT in the board where we pick.
Agree that while more pass rush would be nice, the play of Sample, Ossai, and Carter make it less of a priority. It is a fairly deep EDGE class, even with Verse staying. Gunter could be upgraded. Or Tupou/Tufele on the inside. But it isn't a NEED, really. There are some nice DE/DT guys (Van Ness, Tuli T., etc). Ika could be a nice run stuffer to pair with or spell Reader.
How Adeniji & Carman play will go a long way to determining how urgent the need is next year. Jonah & Collins will be on the roster and make $20 mil combined.
