I think we'll be as good as our defense. Of course, that goes without saying.
But, I think we have the pieces on defense to be very, very good. Will they come together?
I think the DL appears younger and improved. Lissemore and Hatcher along with Crawford is the making of a young, tenacious group of DEs.
I think we're improved at ILB. Carter, Conner, and Lee are young and talented.
I think our secondary shows a ton of promise.
We also have a full offseason with Ryan, so there should be fewer breakdowns.
The lack of depth at WR is alarming. The OL I will reserve judgement on until we see them all together. The starting group of Free, Livings, Costa, Bernadeau, and Smith might do just fine.
Romo is good...we're fine at QB. I like where we are at RB and TE.
I'm also excited about the second full season for Garrett. I truly think we've got a good one there.
Now, will that translate into success this season? Not totally sure. There are so many things that can happen. Will we have injuries to key players last all year? Will the Giants or Eagles? How soon will RG3 adapt to the NFL?
I disagree with those that think the Giants and Eagles are so far ahead of us. I think the margin is close. I think we are finally forming an identity. We're identifying the types of players we want to have in our system. I think we have as much talent as the Giants and Eagles...we simply lacked the focus.
