For me the positives are we addressed the secondary which needed not only starters but turnover machines. Forbes certainly appears both, and Martin looks like a better McCain.

They addressed depth on OL and DE.

But that leads into negatives. We probably should have picked up at least on OL starter at G. Maybe the sum will turnout greater than the parts when it all comes together but its a grey area right now.

And no TE or LB help? Not even in UDFA pickups. Yeah, we've already got starters (is Thomas still starter quality?), but could we have improved with guys available? Judging by other pickups yes. And I agree we were nowhere near aggressive enough in trading for picks, we could have moved back certainly and probably still gotten our guys and maybe even traded bodies for more picks (CY?).

I give it a B because the secondary should no longer be considered a weakness and we have no glaring holes. But we could have done better.
