The CB position will probably be the greatest need, but hopefully WJIII gets extended after playing a great season and they try to extend Alexander. Maybe the kid from Dartmouth shows or maybe Phillips wrestles away the outside job?
Hoping that the scheme, the mobility of Burrow, and the improvements at RT and RG end up stabilizing the offensive line, you can never have too much depth in the trenches. Defensive end/EDGE will certainly be looked at very closely.
With Burrow on a rookie deal, there will also be the possibility of other FAs.
My only knock on the draft this year was wishing for a do-all safety like Dugger....of course, he went to the Pats. I haven't even looked, but hopefully that position group is loaded next year.
I won't lie, I somehow forgot about Phillips amid all of the recent talent acquisition action. He was one of the few bright spots at the end of the year. He really hasn't had a ton of game action to develop, so his ceiling may be higher than we expect.
With Jackson, Waynes, and Alexander in front of him, he may have some trouble getting a lot of snaps. Maybe another healthy year as a backup will give him the chance to develop into a player they could trust as a starter come 2021. That would be some serious found money if it worked out that way.
