Or, they could be watching the veteran free agent market in case an upgrade becomes available (like Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy) or if they have to look elsewhere (maybe former Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh). They could also add another kicker or punter to push Wil Lutz and Thomas Morstead.
