Here's the spots I think where we still have a gap:

QB--Allen, Hunt, Wilson, Kimble, Long*  -- will one emerge this year, and do we have a difference making playmaker for the future in that group?

OT--Hickey, Foy, Knapp, Lasker, and some frosh.  Need to upgrade here.  Hickey might not stick around beyond this season.

WR--not going to list them all, but we seem to be infusing this unit with better speed / elusiveness.  Have no issue with them recruiting over some of the incumbents.

DE--Welsh, Robinson, Thompson, Trejo, Simmons [out for year], Johnson.  Solid but unspectacular group.  Need better pass rushing here--no question.

If Hunt, Wilson, Kimble, or Long connect than QB goes from a big question mark to a position of strength.  I also really like the direction of the WRs we're bringing in.  We'll know we've arrived when we have five guys like Brisly Estime in this unit who can make plays.  Need to address deficiencies at OT [interior of the line seems strong, long term] and DE to bring those positional units up to the level of depth / talent as the rest of the roster.  If we do that, there is no doubt in my mind that we can be a top 20 caliber team.
