Well the depth is back and guys like Willis and Lawson should improve the pass rush greatly.

We should be able to wear offensive lines down through the course of a game which is exciting!

I see people wanting to waive MJ...but he has played A LOT of snaps the past couple years thus reducing his effectiveness. He will be a big beneficiary of having Willis to spell him.

Thoughts?

We did draft guys to replace those departing players, only we whiffed on too many of them. Still and Hunt never developed, Thompson missed a lot of games with injuries and Clarke has taken years to develop and is in the final year of his rookie deal. It is good to see that the team decided to make some decent moves.
