The first wave of free agency has come and gone, with teams acting as if they had counterfeit-money being printed in their weight rooms. The flurry was manic at times, with a lot of roster holes being filled.But that doesn't mean they can all be solved. With the NFL Draft coming in a little over a month, and the secondary free-agent market still playing out, here's a look at the biggest remaining roster hole for each of the NFL's 32 teams.CornerbackThey have been trying a lot of different ways to solidify the corner spot opposite the past few years, but it still remains a problem. They could use there, and they are talking with E.J. Gaines, but that remains a troubled area, although Gaines would be a solid signing to help fix it.Defensive tackleThey have a dominant one in , but with leaving to sign with the they need help next to Jarrett. They need a power player who can hold up against the run. They could use an early pick on that spot in the draft. Tight endThey have to get a playmaking tight end early in the April draft. They signed receivers and to help give them some weapons outside in the pa sing game, but the tight end spot is lacking a true pa s-catching threat. This a good draft for tight ends, so it's a spot that can get help.QuarterbackThey signed former quarterback in free agency, but the deal says it's nothing more than a stopgap signing. They have the arsenal to go up and get a quarterback in the top-6 if they want to do so, or they could sit back and take a pa ser like or .SafetyThey would start and if the season started today. They have to get better there. They could use another receiver on offense, but I think the safety spot is a bigger i sue right now. Dwight Clark Jersey Edge rusherThey have , their 2016 first-round pick, but he hasn't quite played to expectations and suffered a knee injury last year that forced him to mi s six games. After him, there isn't much with and let go. They need to find some speed edge players for their scheme, even after adding in free agency. They just aren't good enough there.Offensive lineEven though they traded to get left tackle from the , they still have major problems up front. It is a unit that struggled in a big way last season, and there are still major questions about a lot of the players who started a year ago. Center is leaving via free agency, but that might be a good thing. center would be a good first-round pick for them.QuarterbackYes, they traded to get but he isn't the long-term solution. They have the first overall pick and the fourth overall, which means they can land their franchise pa ser. I expect them to do that, which could finally solve the decades-long problem. Speed receiverThey still have to decide what to do with , but I bet he comes back on a restructured deal. Even so, they lack the deep speed to back off a defense. They need to find that in the draft to help balance the offense. Bryant has never been a burner, and he's slowed some now.Offensive lineThey could use a lot of help up front, and the biggest need might be at right tackle. was signed away from Oakland last spring, but he struggled. They could also use some help at left guard.Tight endThey let go, which means they have a major hole at the spot. Ebron never lived up to expectations, but they had little behind him. They do Jimmie Ward Jersey have 2017 fourth-round pick , but he did little last year and was suspended for a game for reportedly mi sing a team meeting. This is a good cla s of tight ends in the draft, so they should be able to get help. CornerbackThey traded away Demarious Randall to the to get backup quarterback , which leaves the position in need of a quality starter. They have second-year player on one side, and he has the tools to be a good corner, but the other side is in flux. They need to sign a veteran and draft a corner early. New coordinator Mike Pettine likes his players to be able to play a lot of man.Offensive tackleThey signed Sentreal Henderson from Buffalo on a one-year, prove-it deal, but he was just OK with the Bills in his 27 starts. They have second-year player , who started some last season, but he is raw. They have to go hard after this spot in the draft. Remember Week One last year when Jacksonville got 10 sacks against them? That can't happen again.Pa s rusherThey have a lot of needs, but thanks to the trade with the last week they have the picks to fill them. They traded the third overall pick to the Jets for No. 6 and three second-round picks, two this year and one next year. That can fill a lot of holes. But the biggest hole remains dominant edge rusher. Jabaal Sheard and are just OK. They need to addre s that spot a few times in the draft. ReceiverThey brought back and signed from the , but neither of those players is a No. 1 receiver. They need to try and get that in the draft. They also could look to take a quarterback to push this year and maybe take over down the road. But No. 1 receiver is the top priority.Nose tackle is an unrestricted free agent, which isn't a good thing for a team that struggled to stop the run last year. They added linebacker to try and fix that, but they need a big body in the middle to help keep him and the other linebackers free to run.LinebackerThey had i sues against the run last year, and a lot of that had to do with their linebacker play inside. They need to get stronger there, especially after not doing anything in the first wave of free agency at that spot. They could also use a down defensive player as well. Edge RusherThey traded to the , leaving a major hole at an important spot in Wade Phillips' defense. is also on the street, which means they are down two players from last season, although he could be back. Young player Samson Ebukam flashed some last season, but they need Nick Mullens Jersey a lot more help for that spot. is another player who could have a bigger role.Tight endThey added some receivers in and in free agency, and upgraded the offensive line, but they need help at tight end. In Adam Gase's offense, a pa s-catching tight end should play a big role. When was released it left a big hole there even if he wasn't that good last year.Offensive lineThey have to get better up front and starter is considering retiring and he's a free agent. The right tackle spot is in flux after they played at guard some last year with playing right tackle. If they draft a tackle, Remmers could stay at guard. If they take a guard, Remmers could move back to right tackle. Big-ticket quarterback needs help. Left tackleThey lost starter to the in free agency, and backups and Cam Fleming are free agents. They did draft in the third round last year, but he mi sed the season with reported blood clots. He's said to be back working out again, so he is a po sibility.Tight end just hasn't been the answer at tight end. They could use help at receiver as well, but a pa s-catching tight end who could challenge down the field would really help the Deion Sanders Jersey offense. Fleener just hasn't been that guyOffensive lineEven though they signed tackle Nate Solder and guard , they still have to add some help up front. What if can't cut it at right tackle? The inside spots are open to competition as well. PS: Solder is 30 now. QuarterbackThey struck out in the Kirk Cousins sweepstakes, but they were able to re-sign and also add at quarterback. But the biggest move was trading their sixth-overall pick to the Colts to land the No. 3 overall pick. That means they clearly have an eye on a quarterback. They gave up three second-round picks to get there, which is a steep price. But that won't be the case if they get a 10-year player who solves their i sues at the position.LinebackerIt looks like they will move from outside linebacker to a full-time rush end. That would leave a spot, even after signing in free agency. They could play Whitehead outside, which means a middle linebacker needs to be found if they do that. Could they bring back ?Offensive lineLeft tackle is 36 and coming off a torn ACL. was solid playing in place of him, but is he the long-term answer? Center turns 31 this year as well. For a team loaded with talent, they can afford to pick a lineman or two who can help in the future. SafetyThey released starter , which leaves a hole next to , who didn't play as well in 2017 as he did the year before. They need to get a quality player who can cover and tackle. They could also use more help at inside linebacker, even after signing as a free agent.Edge rusherThey have some good down players who can push the pocket, but they need a speed, edge rusher in their scheme. They did sign from the , and he has some edge ability, but injuries have slowed him some. This defense has the makings of a dominant front seven, but a speed rusher is mi sing from the equation for now.Defensive line/CornerbackWith now in San Francisco after being released, they need a top corner to go with Shaq Griffin. In their defense, good John Taylor Jersey Cover-3 corners are a must. But they also need help up front. They have some young players they like Nazzir Jones being one of them but they won't have , and from a year ago. That's a big lo s of talent.SecondaryThey brought back corner , but hasn't come close to playing to his potential on the other side. They have second-year player at one safety spot, but need help at the other. Early picks in the secondary are a must, especially after signing three defensive linemen in free agency.LinebackerThey lost , their leading tackler, to the Jets in free agency and there isn't much talent to take over. They also are getting some age in terms of their outside linebackers, which is another spot that needs upgrading. isn't a kid anymore.CornerbackThe have on one side, but they will be losing and was traded to the . They added veteran from the and they have youngster , who was a 2017 third-round pick. But they need more than that. They should addre s this position early and often in the draft.
