Defense round 2

[Bilbo Saggins]

I looked at Baun more closely and he has an interesting blend of characteristics.  His getoff and initial quickness look very good.  He's the type of guy who might do well in a Dick LeBeau style of defense.  The issues that I see are with his length, flexibility, and positional fit.  He's not going to be a 3 down base end and might get eaten alive in coverage if he's tasked with being a stand up linebacker on first and second down.  This team doesn't have a good history with the tweener types, though Baun could do well in a blitz happy defense.  With the two foot injuries - pass imo.  If Kinlaw or Epenesa were there at 33 I think that you sprint to the podium, but aside from a shocker like that I don't see great relative value for the pass rushers who will be there in that range.
