I hope we go for quality versus quantity by moving up to get players who will not only push starters in 2024 but become starters in the future to offset vet cap salaries in the future.
If we do trade Tee, we have to hit in the draft at WR2, OT, CB and DT.
We easily have 10 spots open or filled with guys who can be easily upgraded.
Roster locks: Starters (22).
Burrow, Moss, Chase, Higgins, O. Brown, T. Brown, Cappa, Volson, Karras; Hendrickson, Hubbard, BJ Hill, Rankins, Wilson, Pratt, CTB, Turner, Hilton, Battle, Stone; McPherson, Adomitis.
Roster locks: Maybe starter/Reserves (15):
Browning, C. Brown, Irwin, Iosivas, C. Jones, Gesicki, D. Sample, Hudson, Ford; Murphy, C. Sample, Ossai, ADG, Bell, D. Hill.
That's 37. 16 spots left.
Signed, but upgradeable/injured/iffy (13):
T. Williams, Evans, Carman, D. Smith, T. Hill; Carter, Tufele, Bell, Harper, Ivey (inj), J. Davis, Anderson (inj); Robbins.
Take the 6 most likely out of that group (T. Williams, Carter, Ivey, Anderson, T. Hill, + 1 of Carman/D. Smith), and that leaves you 7 iffy (Evans, Tufele, Bell, Harper J. Davis, Robbins, + 1 of Carman D. Smith) and 10 open spots.
