Our only two difference makers on the d-line continue to age. Very soon, they'll both have logged a decade in the league. There are literally 2 good players and a some guys. How much longer do you think this team can get by not drafting good d-linemen? An injury to either guy, or any backslide on Dunlap or Atkins part would destroy this team. By the time the secondary is up to speed, we'll be looking at a d-line as awful as our o-line.
