GREAT READ!
Glad to hear about Craft's strong offseason. I remember when he was in Jacksonville he was quite a player. Hopefully he has returned to that form. Also, Craft and Thomas as backups??? We're set at CB for once it seems.
I don't know about this...

Bellamy's job is safe at strong safety, make no doubt about it, he is the leader of the defense. Second round pick Josh Bullocks plays extremely fast an is a ballhawk in practice, but won't see the starting lineup this season barring injury.

From what I hear, Bullocks has been having quite the offseason, and Bellamy isn't getting any younger. But we still have plenty of time before the season starts.
I am so excited about our offensive line this season. Our starters are total studs, and our backups are all decent at worst.
I really think that Nate Poole is what we need as a 3rd or 4th receiver (a sure-handed guy who can be relied on to catch a pass on 3rd down). I really hope this guy makes the squad and can do well with us.
I'm disappointed to hear that Shad Meier has had a poor offseason. I was really expecting him to come in and make a difference. But maybe he has; by pushing Boo to take his game to the next level.
I still have little to no confidence in our linebackers and that will continue until they prove something. I like Watson at SLB (I don't think Allen has that good of a grip on it because he didn't exactly have a Pro-Bowl season last year), Fincher at MLB, and I guess Bock at WLB. I hope COlby's newly added weight didn't make him lose a step, hopefully he retained his speed. Even if Allen is in there and one of the other guys aren't, that's still a mediocre and extremely young group of linebackers. I hope they bring it this season.
Not good to hear about McKenzie's hammy. That's the kind of injury that can keep a guy out for a long time.
Anyways, great read...
