Upgrading at RB or RT are luxuries, and they likely will give Niang more time/opportunity at RT. Good time to look for a developmental tackle, though.

They have two young LB and will roll with them. At most, they're looking for a SLB to play in the base package.

Not everything has to be a draft pick. Many ways to acquire talent.
I agree. Sorenson does OK as the hybrid, but not as a starting S. Gordon needs more playing time IMO. While I'd like to see #63 back, I think we can roll with Bolton and Gay. We still have some options in house for that SLB. I'm not sure we have to upgrade at RT just yet. Niang may have been nicked up or maybe he just needs a little more seasoning. We did elevate the Prince to the active roster last week. Maybe that's where he should go. Williams did pretty well yesterday, we still have McKinnon and Gore. CEH will be back next year and Priests don't grow on trees you know.
