None of those things seem impossible or even unlikely. They are also not mutually exclusive.
They only need the one piece for the window to open. They have lots of good vets and a great pipeline of players that will challenge for spots on the roster, with no reason to think the pipe of middle tier platers will dry up considering most of their talent came from later picks (assuming we don’t suffer any scouting department setbacks).

Well you left out the most unlikely - grabbing a UFA superstar centre.
