Ok here goes IMO:
I think that because the offense does not need much work we should sure it up/ make it complete by getting what it needs first because we are not going to have the draft picks nor cap space to completly fix the defense and too we are going to be working with a young QB and getting him better targets will only make HIM better
Secondly,by being on this forum, reading it's posts and looking at ESPN it is almost a given that Clements is probably coming to DC so him and Springs should make a good CB tandem. I think that Rogers should be used in nickle and dime packages (he was a draft day bust). With Clements and Springs at CB we can blitz one or both of our safties more aggresively while using Rogers as an extra coverage guy he would serve better than a safety in our coverage defense therfore our safties will not be getting burned like they were this year on the deep pass and can help the run defense . AA can stay, learn the defense and use his God gifted skills and actuallly be an asset to team next year (well I thought that he could until reading his article so I guess that it will have to be Prioleau) but a good corner game will help free up the safties for other things.
Carter, Golston, Salave'a and another defensive end that we will have to aquire from somewhere should make the D-line OK.
Washington and McCintosh will be our outside LB's and as with the CB and the DE we are going to have to aquire a middle LB but Marshall will suffice if we are running out of cap space next year.
As you can see, this is NOT a lot of personel changes but ones that can make an offense more formidable,help JC out while helping out the defense as well.
Again we are not going to be able to complete the defensive moves this year with what we have to work but a possession receiver will, at least, keep the unit off the field more by sustaining drives and we can complete there moves the following year but we would, at least, make the playoffs next year .
Don't forget that we are going to be getting rid of players also(hopefully some dead weight at the receiver position) to make other moves work
