Okay, cool man.

As for me, I'm kinda in the middle on this one. I could see a single gap 3-4 working here, with not a lot of changes from current personnel. Sure, we need LBs, we need LBs no matter which alignment the new coach decides to go with. However, I could see our younger talent like Hubbard, Willis, and Lawson all filling roles in a 3-4 with basically a seamless transition.
Either direction that they decide to go, I say bringing in both a vet in FA, and drafting a high quality LB will cure most of what ailed last year's defense. Of course, I'm also counting on Glassgow coming back healthy and Ringo proving to be more than just a flash in the pan.
Great post Sunset, feel the same.
Pretty cool that Ringo looked as good as he did for an UDFA.

Glad to hear something about Adolphus Washington, didn't get to watch the games after we got him.
Thought it was a good grab initially.
Billings is still the guy that i hope can become that big run stopper that can make a splash sack once in awhile. Dude when healthy is so strong that O-lines will have to double him or Geno and one of them will be freed up eventually. It has just taken a lot more time with Billings than i thought it would cause of the injury and him being so young. He needs to figure out how Guards and Centers are trying to play him so he cannot get washed out of plays.
