No one can predict anything. They could draft the next Reggie White in the fourth round. He could take one look at Speaks and know exactly how to use him.
He could walk in and say "we gotta cut half these starters." No one knows anything. We don't even know it's going to be Spagnolo.
BTW the correct pronunciation is "Span-YO-lo". In italian, GN becomes a NY like in "annual"

They aren’t going to hire anyone that’s going to want to cut half of the guys on defense.
They are going to hire someone that can get this defense to help us win a championship next year and are going to throw all of their resources at doing exactly that.
Most of the draft picks and FA dollars will go towards making this defense something that will help us beat the Patriots in the playoffs.
In that respect, Spag makes some sense because I think a lot of the players here would benefit from a scheme/philosophy change to his perceived style.
Most of these guys on defense are good when their job is simplified and they are able to attack/be aggressive.
