The Front Row

Here are the guys the Cavs have under contract for next year:

Andy Varejao ($8.4M) PER 18.9
Luke Walton ($6.1M the final year of the contract) PER 4.5
Kyrie Irving ($5.5M) PER 21.3
Daniel Gibson ($4.8M if the team exercises the option) PER 9.2
Tristan Thompson ($4M) PER 13.1
Omri Casspi ($2.3M) PER 11.4

Adding 4 draftees and 2-3 FA will bring their roster towards 13 players on the active roster.
Based on that, it looks like the most glaring needs will be at SG, SF, and C.

Much like the Browns, the Cavs need a "playmaker"... an offensive player that is a guy who you can give the ball to and have him get you buckets anytime. Of course, they could also use a defensively sound PF/C who can contribute almost immediately (Varejao isn't getting younger).

MKG, Perry Jones, Terrence Jones, Austin Rivers, Fab Melo, Festus Ezeli, Doron Lamb, Bradley Beal, Darius Miller, and Thomas Robinson all sound like they'd fit on the team at this point... and all have the potential to become Cavs this summer. It is going to be a very interesting draft because of the number and placement of our picks and because of how deep this draft appears...
