Draft needs for 2016

Sorry Wing, I thought we were discussing the Brown's yearly needs.,,
 
The good news is that if the 2015 draft works out we might not have any glaring needs at a specific position
and can pick some best athletes available in 2016.
 
Foster and Beechum are free agents, health is old. No clue how our secondary will fare, or if Jarvis will end up being good. I see plenty of areas we may need to address.
 
Too early to tell. Rookies or 2nd years players could play well, and by doing it the Steelers can cross over a projected 2016 draft need. Heyward, McClendon, and Gay are free agents in 2016. Will they all be retained?

Colbert and Tomlin are at the cross roads as neither are signed beyond 2016. The Steelers have not won a playoff game in four years. There are too many unanswered questions to project 2016 draft needs.
 
Man who knows. I figure they will extend Beachum this summer and Heyward. Next summer De Castro gets re-signed.. Could be looking for a guard opposite David next year. As for OLB it depends on Jones on whether he can stay healthy and perform up to the level expected of him. I figure CB again back-up RB, possibly a TE depending on how they feel about James. And if the drafts don't come to fruition sooner than later, then yes a GM and Coach could be in the offering sooner than later as well.
