Agree 100% on the "disguise" discussion. We were also one of the least frequently blitzing teams. I think that has to change.
If there is one element that is needed other than aggression on defense, it is speed and instincts at the LB position. They hardly ever got beat deep, but the lack of a pass rush (as you eluded to) and the combined lack of speed and instincts at the LB position was a disaster. They need to draft two LBs (hopefully White and I really like the kid from WVU at MIKE). They could also re-sign Preston Brown for quality depth and base defense. It was a very small sample size but I thought he was solid before injury.
I wouldn't go after Landon Collins as a FA, but would definitely look at the draft to push Williams at SS. For FA, I would hope for a DT, and re-sign Dennard, CJ Uzomah, and Eifert (ok, that is a sentimental choice).
