Breaking down our defense:

S: Thompson, Ihedigbo
- Completely depends on if Reed comes back or not. If he doesn't we'll need at least two additions via draft or FA. Kerry Rhodes would be a great stop gap.

CB: Webb, Smith, Graham, Brown, Jackson
- Getting Webb back will be huge for the defense; however, we are not completely sure how quickly he will be back to 100%. A late draft pick or cheap vet option may be used to ensure more depth. Antoine Cason could be a guy to kick the tires on if he comes cheap.

ILB: McClain, McClellan, Carr, Bynes
- At least two additions will be needed. I expect a somewhat high draft pick to be spent on this position, as well as a decent FA. Rolando McClain if cut could be a great option.

OLB: Suggs, Upshaw, Hamilton, McAdoo
- The fact that we have two returning starters is a plus. We will need depth behind them, and I can see at least two additions via draft or FA.

DE: Ngata, Canty, McPhee, Tyson
- This is probably our deepest position besides CB. We should be fine going into the season with our current DE's.

NT: Cody
- Ozzie said we need to beef up the middle of our defense in the draft. At least one addition in the draft will be towards a NT/DT. I can also see Oz bringing in a cheap vet for competiton or depth. Alan Branch could be a solid addition through FA.
