We dont have enough resources to fix this defense in one off season
We need a whole new secondary and two linebackers
I think scheme can help. Bland and Revel both need to be man corners. I think our safeties are also better in a non-Cover 2 or non-Cover-3 scheme.
If we move to a system that puts our three expensive DTs on the field together (3-4), we'll need an OLB/pass rusher and MLB.
We will need a third corner, and we also could improve the safeties, but switching to a 3-4 and mostly playing man gives us a chance for the least amount of absolutely necessary changes.
DE Q. Williams
NT Clark
DE Odighizuwa (Solomon Thomas top backup)
OLB Eze (Houston top backup)
ILB Overshown
ILB Draft pick
OLB Draft pick (Clowney top backup)
CB Bland
CB Revel
(NB Free agent?)
FS Hooker
SS Bell
Again, there are some spots we can improve, but a scheme change would make some of those spots not as bad. And we're not going to bring in expensive FAs, so we shouldn't expect much improvement outside of those first two draft picks.
