Defense needs to be STOUT in the middle of the field with effective contain on the outside. Add in a couple of solid cover CBs with speed and the defense will be just fine.
Now the exact makeup by individual player has not yet been determined.
If we get KK back, (and Poe...) the inside of our DL is solid. We proved this past year we can get pressure and sacks with our personnel., so DE and/or OLB is solid as well. ILB is still a ?? We'll see. I DON'T CARE what you think about Eric Reid, but he and Tre Boston can play Safety for me any day. CB is still a ?? I like Bradberry and Jackson, but neither of them really "sparkled" this past season. Ross Cockrell seems effective at times. Corny Elder is just a placeholder....he's too small and light to be effective against bigger #1 WRs.
Our Defense needs some massaging and manipulating, but overall we have a LOT of the pieces. Just a matter of getting them to play UP to their capabilities.
