Need pass rushers. That would solve alot of the defense's problems.

So while they have a ton of needs, there might be some rotational guys out there that can provide some improvement just by showing up and doing things correctly, at a comparable or lower cost. But yeah, that have needs at all 4 DL positions. |

I’d like to keep Ingram at a fair deal, sign Ogbah for a lower end deal and draft a ranging safety to replace Sorenson.
I think DE, DB and WR are our top needs |

Nnadi's okay. He and Saunders I would say are average DT's. if Nnadi's demands are reasonable you could bring him back and between Jones, Nnadi, Saunders, and Wharton you're fine at DT.
If Ingram is reasonable on his demands, you could totally bring him back. Ogbah is a good option, and then Kaindoh is still just potential. I'd probably go DE early in the draft assuming there's a fit. With a couple of proven vets and a couple of young guys you're in decent shape. |

Run defense is easy and there's not much new under the sun there. Flow, fill. See your gap, hit it. If the RB is there, hit him. If he's not, hit your blocker, engage him, take him out of the play and let someone ELSE hit the ballcarrier. I got into some stupid Twitter argument on a play where Niemann actually did his job on a run blitz. He hit the guard at the point of contact, drove him back two steps and then got tossed. But by then, the G had been pushed into the running lane, forced the RB into the B gap where Jones was waiting to swallow him up. Some Twitter moron said "If that's the Oklahoma drill, Niemann lost!" - well no shit. This ISN'T the Oklahoma drill. It was a perfect example of team defense. By neutralizing the guard, Niemann helped that play happen. If he tries to split the G/C, the G can probably take on Jones and the RB has a cut-back lane. Run defense is 100% discipline. Always has been. Do your job and it will fall into place. |
