Yes, I think it does. (1) they will take BPA at 9, which is going to be a defensive player, hence the offensive binge during FA; (2) they will not need to draft 10 players for depth, some of the FA signings are great depth. They will want to hit on 2-4 impact players, and they can get it from 9, later 1st round, and 2nd or 3rd.
I can also see them flat out trading down if the defensive player they want is not there, then using the picks to have multiple late first/high 2nd round picks.
