Several different answers here from the writers. As we will get a variety of them from our fans as well.
Though 2 say CB, because of the injuries.
DT and Swing Tackle are the others, with a mention of RB.

WR was an answer that would have been in the mix. But the Pickens trade took care of that.

What position do you have and why?
 
I think the position we need is the position to just wait and see what we have so far! What's the rush to go out and get a vet before camp anyways, half of those guys don't want to sign until after camp or late in camp to avoid camp!

Gotta go with needing a big ugly up front on the D line. I know the run defense concerns are all along the line but you get an anchor and it makes everyone's job easier if he can draw double teams.
 
Defensive tackle why fairly obvious we can't stop the run
They're hyping a 7th round rookie DT as our solution for a run stopping DT.

That's how sorry we are at run stopping at DT.

Really kind of incredible that this is where Mazi is in his career. He's just bad.

To be fair to Mazi, they made/let him drop way too much weight in his rookie year. To me that just wasted the year and set him back to rookie level for his next season.
 
And we will absolutely not make a super bowl run until both DT positions are fixed.
You don't think Osa gives us one of the two?

He's a good pass rush DT. Not a true DT, but still, he counts for something. Doesn't he?

He better. He's better than the rest put together. He's the only DT we have who should be making the field.

Maybe he's a 1/2 and we need 1 1/2 more?

Exactly!

They are absolutely counting on Mazi suddenly playing like a first rounder and a 7th round rookie contributing immediately.

If both don’t happen, there’s no chance for a deep playoff run. Unlikely and depressing that the season is over before it starts due to front office incompetence….again.

A great pass rush can make the DB's look better. Good DB's are not going to help our run D, and neither is a good pass rush.

He does count, but need a good one to rotate w/. Most super bowl level teams have 4 quality DTs.
 
IF by a miracle Mazi starts playing like a first rd pick and Toia plays like one as well then we are in real good shape with OSA
Not great shape but real good

Chances of that happening are slightly better than an asteroid wiping out earth tomorrow
 
This is easy for me…DL. I think the interior DL is garbage. Maybe Mazi shows up but I just don’t see him as 40/50 snap interior stud. Without him being good I think this line can be exposed. I will add OT and CB as well. Tackles have big question marks. Talent is there but I think the probability of the starters playing well is low. CB is injury related. If they were healthy there it would by be a strength.
