You really see Hendrickson, Awuzie, and Hilton being better than Lawson, WJ3, and Alexander?
PFF grades for the guys who left vs their replacements:
WJ3 - 72.4 coverage grade
Awuzie - 52.0 coverage grade
Alexander - 67.2 coverage grade
Hilton - 67.0 coverage grade
Lawson - 84.9 pass rush grade
Hendrickson - 78.0 pass rush grade
The only grade where a replacement was better than the guy who left was Hilton had higher run defense and pass rush compared to Alexander.
Hendrickson had more sacks than Lawson, but Lawson had more pressures.
Hilton had more two more INTs than Alexander.
Waynes is replacing WJ3. Awuzie is replacing Sims. We also added Apple.
Yes, I think:
Waynes, Awuzie, Hilton, Phillips, Apple, Brown
is better than:
WJ3, Sims, Alexander, Phillips, Davis, Brown
Not by a lot, though. Deeper. Awuzie >>>> Sims and Davis is the #7 CB now.
Dallas' D was a train wreck last year. Go back 2 years on Awuzie and he is in the 70s. And it is not all pass coverage. WJ3 is a terrible tackler and has hands of stone and is much better in man.
