Theres still a ton of quality names out there in free agency. You have 30 mil left and can go out and get guys like Jamie Collins (Justin Houston if you want to splurge) and Brent Grimes to add some leadership and depth you could be in a really good position going into the draft.

Flowers Snacks Hand
Collins ??? Davis Okwara
Slay Walker Diggs Grimes

Coleman, Kennard, Ashawn as rotational/scheme rotation.

/drool

Draft a LB and RG. Poof....we have a team.

I love the idea of getting Collins and Grimes, but didn't it come out that Collins was traded from the Pats in part because he wouldn't listen to Matty P's play calls... Just feel like it's very unlikely that we sign Collins even though I would love the move.
