Battle was good once they got Scott largely off the field. He still needs to improve, but it's largely just from a knowledge, experience, and communication standpoint.
Dax was bad, but you don't give up on a 1st round pick after 1 year of being a starter and he has seemingly all the physical tools he could possibly need there.
They came into 2023 with a combined total of 131 snaps on defense in the NFL and both are entering their age 24 season for 2024. I would put money on (barring injury) Battle and Dax being our 2024 starters at safety come Week 1.
In no order of priority...
WR
TE
RB
RT
LG (though they probably won't)
NT
CB (if they don't bring back Awuzie)
P
Very little chance that upgrading over a young first-two-days draft pick at safety is a priority over any of those spots that need addressed this offseason.
