So from that list i only have 48 guys left. I have too many CB's for the final cutdown, same with both kickers at the moment.

Based on my list, we need a coverage LBer or two as an absolute priority, maybe Hunter Woehler is one of those guys? And at least a couple of DE's, ideally a splash starter, but that is unlikely with the lack of money/draft capital we don't have! An interior offensive lineman, and a tackle to add depth alongside Freeland and Tenuta, depth at RB, and also a veteran backup QB. No idea what Kyler Murray might be expecting if he is cut, he is probably too expensive anyway.

I do think that there is quite a lot of young talent on this roster. A true pass rusher, alongside both Ward and Gardner would make the defense something to be frightened of.
