Personally, I’m starting to believe that an offensive player would make the most noticeable difference. It’s true that the Defense has greater needs, but it seems that we’re going to pass on throwing big money at another star(ish) DB, and I’m not sure there’s any player available at LB or DL that would make a tremendous impact. Please convince me otherwise btw. The route to defensive recovery seems like it may be a longer road and will require several pieces. Value FA pickups and the draft may be our best plan for a defense with as many needs as ours.
On the other hand, Norwell would solidify our OL for several years to come, and there are several high quality #1/2 WRs available that would have the potential to elevate us to one or then top offenses in the league. Adding Robinson, or Landry, or Watkins etc... would be the most exciting FA addition we could make and strike fear in the rest of the AFC West, if not the entire league.
All that said, my strongest preference would be for another star DB.
