1) Early last season our DL was hit hard by the injury bug, Rankins, Hill, Jackson and Jenkins
2) Dax and Turner go down, season ending injuries
3) Wilson goes on IR
4) A lot of Rookies were getting a lot playing time, they showed they were rookies, but played well down the stretch
5) Slaton is being way underrated on here. Led the league for DTs for run stopping percentage
6) We will add some very good talent in the draft.

I believe this D will end up better than last year

The Dax injury hurt a lot.

Wilson went on IR when the team was playing well on defense at the end of the year.

You're overrating Slaton.

Hopefully we have better health, but likely some guys will be injured that we don't expect. Need depth.
