With your current roster, you can add an All Pro to either side of the ball*, but you will lose your second best player on the other side of the ball. What position do you have the All Pro at, who do you lose, and how does it affect your team?

I'm guessing this would mean I'd either have to give up Julio, Ryan, Trufant, or Beasley.

Obviously I'm not giving up Julio or Ryan, so it comes down to giving up a shutdown corner or the league's leader in sacks. Our biggest need on offense is guard, but there's no way I'd trade a CB or a pass rusher for Zach Martin. I don't think upgrading RB makes a lot of sense considering Freeman/Coleman combine to be just as good as any backfield in the league. Really the only feasible options would be to add another elite receiver (Brown, Beckham, or Green), an upgrade at TE (Kelce or Gronk), or upgrade at Left Tackle (probably Bahktiari or either of the Titans OTs because they are all three extremely talented and should have more years ahead of them than behind), and convert either Matthews or Schraeder to Guard. The final option would most likely improve the offense the most, but since I'm an alum of UGA, Green is very tempting as well. Green and Julio on the same team would be absolutely ridiculous to behold, but we've got enough play makers, and Green's injury history combined with the fact that he and Julio are the same age would force me to consider Beckham instead, insuring that Matt Ryan would always have at least 1 elite WR til the day he hangs up his cleats. Conklin and Bahktiari are the youngest two elite Tackles that graded as top 6 OTs by PFF, and while Conklin is younger by 3 years, he also didn't play LT last season, so in the end, I'd take Bahktiari. I see it as an upgrade at 2 positions, and insurance on Ryan's health as the rest of his line approaches their thirties. Would we be better though? I think we'd set a new record for scoring this year, but I think our defense would suffer more from the loss than our offense would gain. So, I'll pass...
