2022 PFF Grades:
1. Reader, NT, 87.3
2. Hendrickson, DE, 85.0
3. Pratt, LB, 80.6
------------
4. Bates, FS, 76.8
5. Hilton, CB, 73.4
6. Logan Wilson, LB, 72.7
7. Hubbard, DE, 72.4
------------
8. Awuzie, CB, 69.9
9. Bell, SS, 66.3
10. BJ Hill, DT, 65.8
-----------
11. Apple, CB, 52.9

Taylor-Britt graded out at 56.1 (higher than Apple).

Dax Hill graded out at 58.1, but most of that was at corner ,not safety.

My overall point was that Bell, while much beloved, and for good reason, wasn't exactly our top rated defender. He rated 9th of our starters last year, ahead of only BJ Hill (barely) and Apple.

If I had to choose between keeping Bell or Pratt, I'd chiose Pratt. He had a MUCH better year. However, it was his ONLY good year. But he is younger.

Losing Bates hurts. He is a quality player. No doubt about it. Like Bell. And losing them both at the same time leaves a hole. We need to fill it.

S & TE are the gaping holes right now.

CB, IOL, RB, & WR are the biggest depth issues.

OT is a quality/availability issue, we have 5 guys signed.

DE, DT, and LB are good. We have 5 at each spot inked. Could upgrade the last spot in each area, and we carried 6 LBs last year, but there is not a NEED.

Totally agree on Bell. And IF you're going to spend heavily, you need difference makers. That's how you win when a QB makes $50 million a year.
