But hopefully this draft has finally upgraded the horrible LB group that seems to have been the weak link on D for 20 years.
They did. Johnson, Cordasco, Adeniji, Su'a-Filo, and Knipfel are all new to the team. Not to mention that we'll finally be unveiling Jonah Williams at LT, and I think that many will be shocked at what a year of development and maturity will do to boost Michael Jordan's level of play. (Many people forget that he was only 20 y/o last season)
The way I see it, there are potentially 3 spots up for grabs on open competition, and about 8 guys to fight it out for those 3 spots. That is pretty far from "sitting on their hands" as far as bringing in OL help.
But, I'm with you, as far as the defense. What they have done to overhaul that defensive roster this offseason and draft class is far beyond anything I could have envisioned them to do.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
