I am in this place. It is weird, while I know we have more pressing needs (DE, DT, IOL), the FA class is weak at DT & DE & TE. And I am not in love with any of the 2nd tier DE/DT prospects (Scourton, Grant, Nolen, Harmon). And we do not really play with OLB's on D (M. Williams). Assuming the Tier1 guys on D are gone (Graham, Carter, Johnson, Starks), taking the HR two way TE and circling back to a deep DL class on Day 2 would be fine with me. 

I'd rather have a surefire stud at TE than a middling DT/DE prospect. 

Restructure Burrow. Extend Chase. Sign Tee. Cut Rankins and Cappa. Bring back BJ Hill. Go hard after IOL upgrades (2): Smith, Jenkins, Daniels, Fries, Becton, Zeitler, Banks. 

Then reassess. Do we need to free more cap (Hubbard, Moss, Sample, Pratt, Stone)? Make another FA move on the market at DE, DT, S, LB, WR3? Bring back one of our own (Hilton, Gesicki, Ford, T. Brown, ADG, Hudson, etc)?

I just want a player in Rd1. Not a prospect or a reach. Someone who will help us now. We need help now.
