I doubt anyone is close enough to the cap where they would have to make a cut of a player with significant talent in order to sign their draft picks.
Basically, any player who hits the market between now and the season is hitting only because their former employer doesn't think they can play.
So we either fill our needs by getting creative (which is what I suggested Williams for, not that I have the slightest clue if he can bull rush an NFL Guard), or we keep the thirteenth pick, and either address the offense or the defense, and leave the other with less depth than we need.
The other option is 1) hope that we can package our 1st and 3rd picks for two seconds, and 2) nail two impact players at positions of need in the second round.
I just don't see any other way that we would have the complete roster that I hoped for.
