In their defense, most of the rest are young and could turn out to be really good football players. At this point however, I dont see the defense having a lot of talent. I would say our talent level is below average. If our season started today with the current roster, I wouldnt expect Golden to have a good defense. IMO, this defense still needs 3 or 4 additional guys for us to see real improvement. I do think this will be addressed in the draft and ultimately I expect to see some good improvement from the defense this coming season so I am hopeful
Trey didn't start out special, neither do many of the best players in the NFL, it takes time. But I agree, at this point none of these players have
done much as they are young. With good coaching and hard work any one of the players I listed could become special for all we know. I don't
think it is a matter of talent. For example, guys like DJ Turner, Dax Hill, Kris Jenkins and McKinnley Jackson HAVE flashed talent already.
I expect a Defensive heavy draft as well and some good improvement this season as long as the new coaches aren't just inept even more so than
the last ones in developing the youth.
