Is their any reason to be optimistic for these guys? If there has been any hype around the D I have missed it. I don’t post on here much anymore but I will often peak in. Between the boards and the articles everything is focused on coaching staff, the o-line, and of course now with resigning of Boyd and Green’s injury, focus has shifted to WR core. Can someone shed some light on our LB core and will the rookie we drafted fight for a starting spot? How about our safety situation? For how many points the D gave up last year I feel like there has been no focus on them, which in that case makes me believe we should expect more of the same this year. Your knowledge is appreciated here! Thanks!
This Defense should be much better this year with the Drafting of Pratt and Preston Brown being healthy. The Linebackers have a new coach with a great resume in Tem and the LB's were the problem last year. Bates and Hubbard should only grow from their rookie year and they both had a great one. We have a good D-line and Secondary, if the LB's pick up the slack we should be back to being a top 10 Defense.
