Plus Henry has a LOT of miles on him and even last season you could see him slowing down. And our issue on defense last year was not getting blown off the line - it was giving up explosive plays from being out of position and also losing backside contain. A lot of the backside issue was Hubbard playing hurt all season which hopefully is corrected and our new safeties are directly about fixing the communication and alignment issues. Rankins teams with Hill to give us back the interior penetration and pass rush we haven't had since Ogunjobi. Tart as a NT even adds some pop from that spot.
I think people are overrating the Rats this Offseason. I saw Henry run well against the Jags to put them out of the Playoffs but we ran well
on the Jags and we were the worst running team in the NFL with a backup QB. Henry has a lot of wear and tear and it would be hilarious if
he fell off the cliff while the Rats lost 3 starting OL.
Their Defense will suffer losing that DC, that guy was great at what he was doing. I was really impressed with their DC last year, until the
Playoffs that is lol
