The defense is already bad at getting to the QB, so we'd need a spike in productivity in some other than Trey Hendrickson to pick up the slack. Defense as a unit is SUS until proven otherwise.
Dax Hill could be better than Jessie Bates on down the road. Expect him to struggle a bit early this season learning as a starter.
Brick Scott has valuable experience and his PFF grade was brought down because of a free roaming idiot in Ramsey with the Rams.
Battle is impressive, Tycen Anderson looked great in the Preseason and if he can stay healthy is also really talented.
The pass rush will have to help out the new Safeties. Adding Myles Murphy helps, Trey is still a top pass rusher, Sam will work his
ass off this Offseason to get better as he always does, Ossai was consistently getting pressure late last season and in the Playoffs.
We have a top LB core in Wilson, Pratt and ADG and a top Corner in Chido with an up and comer in CTB, a top Slot Corner in Mike
Hilton and good depth with Sidney Jones if he can stay healthy, DJ Turner who has great speed and hips and Jalen Davis. Ivey has
already been impressing everyone.
I think the Defense will prove they are not suspect, we will see. Lou is a mastermind.
