I have been a Dunlap fan since he arrived with the team and I have to admit I was extremely disappointed by his reaction when he was challenged by this coaching staff. I hate seeing Geno go but the reality is that he has never come back from injuries to be the player he once was.

I really like the make up of what they appear to be creating on the defensive side of the ball. It looks like with the personnel they have added over the last couple of seasons that they really want to attack. I like this cast of young LBs and especially look forward to seeing what a completely healthy Marcus Bailey brings to the table.

I see Ossai as an extremely versatile piece of the puzzle. I also think Cam Sample is going to be a guy that we see line up all along the D line in given situations and is another young guy that could play a vital role in the success of this defense.

I'm very optimistic about Ossai.  Curious to see how they plan to use him in various situations.  As FanInKettering mentioned, defensive playmaking isn't always just rushing the passer.  Run stuffs and TFL are huge momentum shifters.
