Biggest NFL roster holes for all 32 teams after the 2022 draft - What each team is still missing, potential solutions, more

This NFL offseason has been nothing if not entertaining. Some NFL teams made a huge splash in free agency, such as the Miami Dolphins and Denver Broncos, while other made major improvements in the 2022 draft, such as the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Jets.

In that scenario, it's a big ask for Williams and Fowler to contribute a meaningful pass rush.

Fifth-rounder John Ridgeway (Arkansas) was a stab at fixing the interior run defense. The
