If you thought the defense struggled last year, imagine it with a possibly worse pass rush and no veteran leadership or hardly anybody that knows the system in the secondary. We better just shore up our offense and hope we can outscore everybody.
No offense, but why do you think the pass rush will be worse? Don't get me wrong, I am all for adding a pass rusher, but I don't think it will be worse even if we don't add a new.
Tapper is, at very least, an exciting athlete, Mayowa is in his 2nd year with us and played well late. DWare and Crawford played injured for most of last year so, hopefully, at least, DWare can go back to his '15 form. But, the two I am the most excited about is Collins who I think could be a real force in his 2nd year and Irving who came to us really raw, but has the potential to be a real stud if he can find consistency.
