Delve into OL on the FA market along with a pass rusher.

If Sewell is there you take him otherwise go BPA in the Draft.

I agree on targeting OL in FA. Makes a lot of sense as that is what we need help with now. 

If they re-sign Lawson, I'd be fine with drafting an edge rusher to add to the rotation (as FA rushers are pricy and we likely can't afford one).

I don't think there is a glaring need at WR--where you can justify throwing a ton of money at the position. We've got 2 really good receivers already, and depth behind them (with experience). Add another draft pick anywhere in the draft and I'm happy. The lines are what need attention.

At the minimum, I'd like to see a legit guard or tackle signed in FA, as well as re-sign CB Alexander and Edge Lawson. I would like to see WJ3 re-signed as well. Of course there are lots of depth players to re-sign too. 

Let AJ walk. Tate can fill his role pretty easily (not hard to match his 2020 production). Add another receiver at some point in the draft. Trade down from 5 and pick BPA (which should line up with an edge or a lineman) and BPA with our extra 2nd rounder. Or, if FA was really good, you can take Chase as a luxory pick (but we won't be able to re-sign him so it's kind of a waste)--or stay put and draft who we view as the top edge player, or the best defensive player on the board. I really think trading down will do more to make our team better, but staying put might not be a bad option.
