Thompson has always done a nice job of taking a weakness and fixing it pretty quickly. He does it via the draft. He's stockpiled receivers and linebackers in the past. He added two 3-4 contributors last year. I think it's clear he'll work with the offensive line. I just wonder how much he'll change.

I tend to think Jason Spitz and Scott Wells at center will sort itself out. I think Josh Sitton is a great RG in the making, but the two tackles and left guard is still kind of up in the air. Daryn Colledge has improved on a yearly basis, but he still struggles against bigger tackles. Perhaps a bigger "nastier" left guard is something Thompson will look at.

It also seems clear that T.J. Lang deserves a starting job somewhere on the line. It's either left guard or right tackle IMO.

It'll be an interesting to see the approach this off-season and really the draft.

TJ deserves a spot on the line. I think he is a RT or LG too, but I think next year it'll be Lang (LT) Colledge (LG) Spitz (C) Sitton (RG) and Tauscher (RT)

I don't have a problem with that. I would love to get us a shiny new LT but I just don't see it happening. Lang has gotten the job done basically every time they've called on him, so if they call on him next season to be the starter at LT, I give him the benefit of doubt and say that he'll play the position well.

Needs:
Draft-
1. OL both T and G
2. S
3. LB depth (If they are going to have 5 LB in at times I would like to see who they can pick up in the 3-4 round to add some depth. If the new player bumps Jones that is fine.)
4. Punter please!
Current FA-
5. Resign Collins
6. Resign Pickett
7. Resign Chillar
8. Resign Williams
9. Resign Bigby for depth.
10. Resign Tauscher for security

Kampman is gone (Doesn't fit the system.)
I am comfortable with the CB they now have and will get back from injury. I don't mind giving Lee/Underwood a little more time to learn. If the BPA is a CB I am fine with that as well.
