OLB we have Sheffield and Studebaker, both of whom have experience playing the position at the NFL level.
ILB has Siler and Greenwood.
Safety? That's a concern spot and we'll probably look at that in this draft, though Brown or Washington could fill in in a pinch.
Tackle? Yeah, there is nobody after Albert and Winston. No one. Zilch. Zero. Nada.
And still people think we should draft DeCastro when guard is the deepest position on this team.

At OLB, if we lose Tamba, we lose 14 sacks. No way Sheffield and Studebaker combine to replace that. Not including pressures, fumbles, etc. ILB is a nightmare if DJ goes down. My only reasoning for taking Kuechly is an insurance policy for Johnson. Because if he gets injured, we have nobody who can come close to doing what he does for our team defensively. There would definitely be a drop off with Kuechly playing instead of DJ, but it would be close to what we saw last year when Berry got hurt.
At Safety, we have nobody. However, its pretty much assumed we'll certainly address that via the draft.
At tackle, yes. There is certainly a liability behind Winston/Albert. I wouldn't be opposed to drafting one in the 4th-7th rounds. I personally wouldn't burn a high pick on it, but that's me. |
