I think that Bates and Bell will provide solid leadership for the entire unit. I also believe Wilson will become another stalwart in his second year. The d-line might take some time, but let's not pretend they weren't awful last year. I think the depth is much better this time around, and there's enough talent in the starting front 4 to hold serve before they get used to playing together.
It will be tough for them to find a way to be worse than last year. My concern is less about talent and more about the coordinator. I'm still erring on the side of Lou being out of his depth. The players are in place for them to get it done. I'm not so sure about the coaching.
Agree with you on Lou, we keep hearing that he’s getting players that fit “ his scheme “. I have no idea what his scheme is or if it works because he’s never been a DC or had a proven track record of success same goes for Taylor.
