Cap casualties - Smith, Vilma, Harper

Quddus and Jenkins might swap SS/FS

Of course all of this changes pending Free-Agency and the Draft.
I think when the season starts we'll have 3 or 4 new starters.

This........except Quddus goes to FS.

i dont think Rob Ryan requires great talent because we dont need him to build a top 10 defense. We need to be stout against the run so teams cant burn out the clock or grind out the game, we need to be able to pressure the QB and turnovers for extra possesions. All GW did in 2009 was play great redzone D and force TOs. If Rob Ryan can get us a few more stops on D, Payton & Co. will do the rest.

We have great, misused talent.......

Corey White...... Most of us think can be a number one corner if given some time.

Martez Wilson..... Consistent field time is all he needs. He makes plays.....

Abdul quddus...... Hard hitter and so far, he has pretty good coverage skills as well.

Cam Jordan......... Trending in the right direction as a player getting push, getting to the qb, teams are beginning to double him, he needs some help....

Hicks, Bush, we have talent...... We need more but more over a coordinator who puts them In the right position not to look like asses......

DE-Cam Jordan
NT-BUNKLEY
DE-Hicks (werner if we miss on jordan)

OLB-Wilson
ILB-Lofton
ILB-Hawthorne/Vilma (only cause I feel he is a good leader)
OLB-Gallete/ (Dion Jordan if we get him)

CB-Greer
FS-Jenkins
SS-Harper/White (played SS in college)
CB-Robinson/White (could be used for nickel coverage)

we should trade for smith and let ellis go imo.

This except, we have no NT on the roster, so we go FA/ and draft to get 1 0r 2. Anyone we have as NT would be disastrous.

Why does everyone say this??? Broderick Bunkley was DOMINATE as NT in Denver. What he may lack in size, he makes up for in strength. Give the guy a chance before we start saying we have no NT.

Still going to need some depth behind the guy...

MLB-ANTHONY SPENCER
OLB-JUNIOR GALLETE / JONATHAN CASILLAS

CB-JABARI GREER
CB-PATRICK ROBINSON OR COREY WHITE
FS-MALCOLM JENKINS
SS-ROMAN HARPER - I think he stays. If GW liked him, Ryan will too.

I agree with your line up and I hope we get another pass rusher and corner in the draft.

Chances are to get in the NFL. Im not willing to take the chance that he does not work out and the DE folds, and the Gaps collaps, just because I wanted to give Bunkley a chance. He's not a pure NT.

We can FA a professional NT and use him as second, but Im not willing to bet a season because he might work out.
