Can We Pay Everybody Within The Cap?

Doesn't have to be though. He still will have another 3 years (including 5th year option) on his current contract.

If we lose to KC and at Cleveland (not unthinkable), we could be in position to draft a real stud.  Linderbaum. An OT/DL/LB/Edge  prospect who slips a bit if QBs/WRs get picked earlier (Cross, Ekwonu at OT, Leal at DT, Lloyd or Dean at LB, Karlaftis or Ojabo on the edge. 

If we pick later and all those dudes are off the board, we still have a shot at some CBs (Garnldner, Booth, McCreary), the best OG in the draft (Green), or perhaps a S if it really late (Hill, Brisker).  

OL would be my #1 priority in FA.  Get a STUD. 

Solidify all the OL starting positions in FA and it will really open up the draft.
You can then use the 1st rounder to get one final rookie starter (at any position) and use Day 2 to get depth guys to groom.
