Position you feel we should be looking to draft

qb
1 shutdown corner for me.
I'm not sure there's a single position on our team currently (MAYBE ILB) that I wouldn't look at in the 1st round if an impact player was sitting there. We've got lots of good players, we need a guy or two that can single-handedly impact the outcome of a game. All the great teams have one (or more) so I don't care what position that guy plays - when we're up in the draft we take him.
CB (and resign Rogers)
FS (still betting on Culliver playing FS for us though)
NT
WR - speed
OT/OG - depth
OLB - depth
RB - depth

If we bring in a QB, it'll probably be a veteran to help Kaep and Tolzein.

We have needs every where besides MLB and TE.

It is a bit early, but after two games I would go with:

Corner Back (pass defense needs help)
Wide Receiver (Edwards signed only for this year, Crabtree not living up to expectations, Ginn is a return specialist)
Outside linebacker (only have three on the team)
Free Safety (pass defense needs help)

Hoping the offensive line begins to play better.
CB will be top priority I think. With two rookie QB's on the roster, I doubt we draft another, unless it's Luck. We'll either re-sign Smith or grab a vet FA in that department.
1. CB
2. FS
3. WR
4. OT
CB
Inline TE
Slot Receiver
C
SS with coverage skills

FS
SS
QB
WR

We really need to rebuild our secondary, we need to get our own version of Polamalu or Ed Reed. As for CB, my top 2 picks as of right now are Dennard and Minnifield.

Excluding QB from the equation for now . .

1. CB/S - Never too many good DB's
2. OLB - We have zero depth and Brooks will be a free agent
3. NT/DE - J. Smith isn't getting any younger.
4. WR - Ginn, Morgan and Edwards will all be FA's
5. C/OG - If Rachal has a good year and he re-signs this won't be a huge concern. I think they're going to groom Kilgore at center.
All of this, Fix the defense, or set it up for the future. Fix the OLINE, and with one of our 7ths get another low round QB.. maybe we get a diamond in the rough.

Looks like we may need to think about a RB too
We have Hunter and Dixon, i.e. we dont have to go after another RB again, at least not until day 3 OR if a huge talent is falling down.

First of all we have to improve our interior o-line. Center (due to Goodwins age) and Rachal (he is awful) have to be replaced in the near future.
Then, we need a #1 WR and this draft seems to have such a type of guys.
Furthermore, we have to get a coverage-FS/SS. Another nice CB could be a good idea as well but with Brock, Culliver and perhaps Spencer we seem to be stacked at #2 CB....for now.
