Gregory, Lawrence, Charlton and Armstrong

The middle of the defense is still pretty porous. Jaylon Smith is running on skates, as usual. We really have nothing up the middle unless LVE can step up in a big way, and he hasn't seen the field much.

Jaylon seems like a hyperactive player. A lot of wasted motion. He needs to settle down and just fire when he sees the ball.
 
I haven't seen a single play. He blitzes, gets blocked. He runs himself out of plays and seems to be a second too late nearly every time. As @JohnsKey19 said, lots of wasted motion. He runs around and dives a lot, but is almost never near the ball carrier.

You didnt see him make plays last week?

Damn, I saw it and that was from the stands, not even tv. Might want to go rewatch.

Just so you know, you’re in the minority with that opinion. Jaylon has been lauded by scouts and analysts so far in camp and preseason
 
I don't know what y'all are looking at. The defense looks great. Jaylon looks ready. Hes not the only player who can make plays on the team. Jones and Awuzie look ready. The defense looks ready. Once Collins and Irving get back to form look out. Irving requires a double and you can't double everyone

Gregory and Lawrence require a double team as well. It's preseason and they trying to scheme against Gregory right now
 
If he stays clean and healthy. Dude is an elite talent.
 
Rod Marinate has to be salivating right now, can't remember the last time we had a pass rush this good. If only we could shore up the S and 1T issues...
Woods looks good and Collins does well as a 1T even though he is a natural 3T. I just wish we could shore up our safety play
 
How about we wait and see if he can actually play a season without getting hurt or suspended before proclaiming him the next insert name here.

His next suspension will probably be his last so he better keep his nose clean for the rest of his career.
 
whats the fun in that?

be a visionary, be bold!

We probably have the worst safeties in the history of the NFL. You simply cannot have a great defense if you are THAT weak up the middle and on the back end. You can cover them up against weak teams, but the great offensive teams will burn you.
