I'm going to leave it at defensive line help. The need on the DL is not to fill one position that is a problem, but rather to add a GREAT defensive player on the line who can both rush the passer and disrupt running plays. We don't exactly have a player on the line who is a drain on the team, but we lack depth and top end talent, so using a pick there is absolutely critical. We need the help at DT just as bad as we need it at DE, but if we can get help at one place, we can address the other position in the future.

Should have used a pick there this past year, but the events of this season have pretty much justified the Landry pick. Now we just have to make up for lost time.
