For round one, I'm not focused upon any particular position; I want the best player available which DEFINITELY excludes McCarthy. I don't know who falls into that pick 16 range, but I really liked the defensive lineman for Texas when I saw him play.
The team definitely has to reduce salary at safety and tight end. I like the current players, but the team is just over invested in those positions relative to the return. Hence, those are the areas that need addressed in the draft. Reed, the seventh-round pick from last year was a wonderful addition and a real bargain, but the team needs at least one more safety and tight end on rookie deals. Inside linebacker is a huge need as well. I also believe the time is right to get a quarterback on a rookie deal, but I am vehemently opposed to spending a first or second round pick on McCarthy.
Safety, Tight End, Inside Linebacker, Quarterback. I don't care what order, but the team needs salary friendly players in those areas.
