Thanks KaChow.
So, the correct sequence for me is Root --> Remove Bloatware --> Unlock bootloader and then use the phone.
BTW: OTA update may never reach me since I am not on Verizon.
I have the OTA if you want it. Here is the OTA for the 9.16.6 and here is the 9.16.9.
I would suggest using OTA Rootkeeper to backup Root and restore after the OTA, just makes things easier. If you have an Unlocked Bootloader and lose Root, then Root can be restored easily.
