What we are neglecting to address is that not every draft pick and not every FA will have the positive impact we are hoping for. Somethings gotta give. However, under the assumption that all of those guys play up to their ability or greater, than yes! We are much improved vs last year.
One thing I'm happy about right now is the emphasis on run defense. Looking at our 2020 opponents, we couldn't of had a better focus for 2020.
Ravens circus running game two times
Big Brown Chubb two times
King Henry and the Titans
Barkley and the Giants
Elliot and the Cowboys
Fournette and the Jags
Texans with a healthy David Johnson?
Marlon Mack and the Colts
We are going to be tested in the run game consistently this year so I'm glad we addressed it first and foremost this off-season. If this was the schedule for last years team it we would have set a record for rushing yards allowed (in the bad way).
Yes, have to stop the run. Glad we focused on this very fact in getting Reader, Waynes, Alexander, Bynes, Wilson, ADG,
Kareem and Bailey. No more of Dre trying to arm tackle out there or Vigil getting torched by Lamar Jackson play please...
