Horrible offseason? LOL! I'm sure you haven't payed attention to anything other than "big name" signings and losses, but I don't expect you to keep up with another team.
Anyways, since we got Jarret Johnson, who people say is one of, if not the best, run stopping OLB in the league, I want us to get Barron the SS in the first round. Not sure if he will be there at 18 though. With Johnson and Phillips starting at OLB, that will keep Barnes fresh, unlike last year where he STILL had 11 or 12 sacks. He's much better when he's kept fresh and used only in passing situtuions. I like all the moves AJ is making, it's just gonna come down to mostly luck in the draft as far as who is still on the board and what not.
FA pick-ups/ Re-signings:
Robert Meacham WR
Eddie Royal WR/PR
Roscoe Parrish WR/PR
Micheal Spurlock WR/KR
Le'Ron McClain FB
Nick Hardwick C
Jared Gaither T
Luis Castillo DE
Antonio Garay NT
Jarett Johnson OLB
Demarrio Williams MLB
Atari Bigby SS
Key Losses:
Vincent Jackson WR
Mike Tolbert RB
Jacob Hester FB
Kris Dielman G

yes we do, however there isnt really any premium defensive players left out there right now. we'll have to do it through the draft and also wait for veterans to be cut in June. We need a safety desperately. Atari Bigby was brought in for veteran presence but i dont see him playing through a whole season.
James Mouton will be back next season, essentially will be his rookie season but i expect he'll have as strong a season as Butler did. That Duo at ILB could be great.
