[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 776709, member: 7261"] Now that the draft is over and the Packers have had time to start looking at how their roster might look in September, who else do the Packers need to possibly strengthen the roster? Most moves now in Free Agency would be make to improve depth, however I still feel that there are a few FA's out there that could improve the starting rotation. [B]WR[/B]: I don't expect any of the rookies to fill starting roles right away, so that basically leaves Allison as your 3rd WR. Maclin, Bryant, Marshall or Decker would be upgrades in my opinion. [B]CB:[/B] We definitely improved the CB position, but there are still some question marks. Will King's shoulder hold up and just how good is he? I think people assume he is going to be awesome if healthy, I am not ready to conclude that just yet. Williams is 35, how much does he have left? JA and Jackson should have a future in GB, but how much will they be able to do as rookies? Breeland, DRC Breux are still out there unsigned and one of them could win a starting job or at least be really good depth. [B]S[/B]: Are Jones or Brice ready to start? I'm not so sure either of them can fill Burnett's spot just yet. With HHCDIII on his final year of his contract, I think this might be a position that would really benefit by the signing of someone like Reid, Vaccaro or Boston. All 3 of those guys are solid safeties with a lot of football ahead of them. Reid may have taken himself off the table with his recent grievance filing. Depth signings could happen at: [LIST] [*]OLB: Barwin, Brooks, Galette [*]TE: Fasano (solid run blocking TE) [*]OL: Howard, Boone, Evans [/LIST] I'm sure that the Packer coaches know what they are expecting from the current players at all of these positions, but if they feel their is a weakness or too much expectations from certain players to step up, now might be the time to plug those holes.
