I never said bench any of our starting LBs - I said get them help. We have no depth right now, and relying on those three to start every down is asking a lot. Plus, McIntosh isn't starting this year, so that's a false option.
Same for our secondary - I'd keep Springs/Rogers/Taylor, and replace AA with a SS starter that can actually, um, I don't know, cover?

vincent and prioleau (next year) can be those vet min coverage guys at SS. i think starting DT, CB, 6th starter for the OL, starting quality LB (lemar is 30, rocky isn't a sure thing right now), kicker/punter are our needs, in that order... a real pass rushing DE would be nice, but getting an immediate impact player there from the draft is extremely hard, and we've already got 3 starting DEs with a reserve, even though they're all average at best.
and to answer the other question, we have a 1, 5, 6, 7... if denver finishes close to us record wise, there could be a pick swap and we'd have a lower 1st and a 3rd i believe. i think there's a top 10 CB, but not a top 5 one. DE is relatively deep this year though, even though the hit percentage on 1st round DEs is only about 50% (and that's 3 years out, not immediate impact). speed cbs don't look very plentiful right now, but that'll change once the combine rolls around and they start practicing 40s :P.
