My priorities would remain in tact...work on the O line first, then the D line...
Griffin is an excellent defensive tackle who was very explosive here in his first two seasons. In the last two, his explosiveness has been very spotty due to injury.

He's too good to replace, but we are going to need to get that pass rushing ability from elsewhere as he continues to age. 2-3 years down the road, he could end up as a cap casulty. He's a bona fide starter until then.
