On the bright side:
1) Burrow will be back. As will Chase, Hendrickson, Hubbard, Brown, Karras, Wilson, Pratt, and CTB.
2) We may not win another game this year with that schedule. 6-7 wins max. I think a top 15 pick is assured. Maybe top 10.
3) Depending on how some guys perform the rest of the way (Murphy, Turner, Battle, Carter, Sizzle, Iosivas, Hudson) some holes could fill themselves.
4) It is likely Lou, Higgins, Boyd, Jonah, Reader,,& Awuzie will be less lot commodities this off-season. More likely to retain or cheaper or both.
5) With a high pick, we should be seriously able to:
a) Upgrade OT (Alt, Latham, Mims, Morris, etc)
b) Upgrade WR (Coleman, Odunze, Nabers, Egbuka)
c) Upgrade CB (McKinstry, DeJean, King, Wiggins)
And be able to come back in Rd2 or Rd3 and hit the others or OG, DT, TE.
6) We have a ton of cap space.
My priority would be to fix the OL in the draft. Bring back Reader & Tee + 1 of Boyd/Chido/Jonah, depending on who will take a bit of a discount & where the cap is.
