Speed on D

Over the past couple of days since the draft I've been breaking down our projected defensive starting lineup. One thing that really jumps out to me is how much faster we are on paper. If you break it down by posistion we have upgraded the speed at quite a few posistions IMHO. If Vilma and Morgan start at mike and will respectively they will be faster than Sim and Shanle were last year. Let's say Ellis starts at under tackle, he'd probably be faster than Young. If Grant slides down on passing downs along side Ellis, then that's even more speed in the middle. I'm not sure if Gay will start or if he is faster than David but he might be faster. I really think that Usama will make a great leap foward this year and will improve the speed of nickle packages. Tracy Porter could be a super fast dime guy. I know that's alot of if's and guess work but can you see where I'm coming from on this one?

Also I think one thing that might be getting overlooked is the fact that this influx of speed will help our special teams. Usama and Tracy Porter could be fierce covering punts. Word is Tracy is a quality return guy and I'd love to see him handle the return duties so that Reggie doesn't have to take those extra hits.

If nothing else we'll have the best team we've ever had on Madden.
