not bad if the D line balls out....http://i335.***BLOCKED***/albums/m472/jdkyle/17352195_1468552689853482_441324946250809985_n_zpslivm5uwf.jpg
Like the youth but that isn't going to necessarily win games. And Rookies are about to be added too. We have to be youngest team in football now.

I watched some games on youtube and Carroll was getting abused by Dez....never turning his head around.

Hopefully smith and tapper even play next year. Plus I'm betting Crawford starts the season on ir. The cb and ss positions will be downgraded for next season also. Just hard to see the dline doing much. It's just hope at this point. But with solid draft picks this could be a very nice defense down the road.

Just my guess based on what we have done so far. It appears they see this draft as deep with talent in the secondary, not edge rushers. Now most of us felt a edge rusher was what this team needed to improve its defense, and Jerry himself said as much. But at 28 my guess is the staff and scouts seen that an impactful edge rusher would be a long shot but a young cb or safety who can over the next few years improve the secondary and save money, was a more viable option. In this draft I think there is a good chance you could get a starting quality cb and safety with the first two picks
If that was actually the plan then I can see the logic in it. Now the talent at cb or safety will certainly be better at 28 than edge rusher so if you look to build with what you actually have the best shot st getting then that could be a logical plan
If that's actually their thought process then I see the logic in it

How many times do we have to try that to realize, oppps fail. We did that with Mike Jenkins, Mo Clairborn, Newman. Just , you know wondering. Why again pass up an edge rusher.
