We’ve gotta keep a wide window to play young draft picks and bargain basement players, and accept that solid but unspectacular play in several instances is more than ok.

I'd definitely focus more on defense. With weak tackles, an average running game and average WRs, the offense is still the best the league. Even with all the talent in the world on the offensive side of the ball, a drive (or game) can still be wrecked by a penalty or fumble. The margin for error is too small against good teams and there's too much pressure on the offense to produce on every possession.
We need a DL that is consistently disruptive and an upgrade for Thornhill.
