I still don't see how our defense is better than last year.

Short of a change in health, it isn't, unless you subscribe to the theory that Monte Kiffin was the cause of all issues. Personnel wise, Melton for Hatcher is at best a wash, but Hatcher's 2013 season is better than anything Melton did in Chicago. Lawrence for Ware is a step back at this time, even with Ware disintegrating before our very eyes.

Yeah, but just wait for those five seventh-rounders to come in and take the league by storm.

Exactly. I just don't see an improvement in any one area.

Street sounds like a smart kid that is ready to get to work. Solid interview.

I don't even like the idea of some of those guys being on the field, much less starting.

That's fair. But I like Bass and Crawford. I like the film on McClain. Melton is fine if he's healthy which apparently they think he is per this draft. I'm not real comfortable with Selvie although he's ok as a WDE. Spencer the question is his health and function. Lawrence should contribute right away. I'm more concerned with the LBers. This defense needs fast LBers.

I don't agree completely.

What's it going to be then, eh?

What is becoming abundantly clear so far is that we are actually going to have Terrell McClain starting opening day.

LOL

Ick. A third-stringer on the worst team in the league last year. Before anyone starts, Wade's NTs aren't THAT different from Marinelli's.

Per previous post. I think we're in decent shape on the DL but that assumes Melton is good to go. I'd still love to have another really quick 3 and another rush end. I'm also not convinced we are set there either. Too much can and some will go wrong.

I like McClain. I'm certain he can be replaced but rush 1s don't grow on trees. We could certainly address that later on or exp next year.
