00:00They've checked the big boxes.

00:04Offensive line, we know the center, interior line, and then edge rusher, check.

00:09Defensive tackle, check.

00:10Now what?

00:11Well, now the remaining needs I think in order of preference would be running back, safety,

00:23defensive pass rusher.

00:27Let me rephrase that.

00:29The third one, I think running back, safety, wide receiver, edge rusher.

00:37I still think a wide receiver in this offense, they've only got three under contract I believe,

00:42or three ones, Roma Dunzey, DJ Moore, and Little Scott, Tyler Scott.

00:48I think that you would like to have more depth at that position, and it's not a great wide

00:55receiving core in the draft.

00:59So I think that they need to go out and get somebody like Tim Patrick perhaps from the

01:02Lions who makes sense and knows Ben Johnson's offense, or get a slot receiver that is going

01:10to be given opportunities to really emerge the way that Amon Ross St. Brown emerged for

01:17the Lions.

01:18Now I'm not going to say you're going to get a Pro Bowl caliber slot receiver, but there's

01:21got to be a guy out there that makes the most of an opportunity in this offense.

01:26So that would be a priority to me.

01:29I'm very curious what's going to happen with, it said name names, I'm very curious what's

01:34going to happen with Cooper Cup.

01:37I just want, I'm not saying the Bears necessarily make sense for him, but I am curious where

01:42his next stop is.

01:44But to answer the question it would be running back, safety, wide receiver.
