We could do worse, and have, but he's just average in my opinion. |

I think they're just playing too far off the ball or too spread out. |

Re: secondary
+1 Rez.
The LB position has to become a priority in next years draft. And I don't mean selecting guys in the 4th, 5th rounds either. I was watching that LB Shazier (rookie) kid for Pittsburgh last night. Where ever Cam Newton thought of running, there Shazier was.. on a B line to make the tackle for minimal gain OR to wipe him out. We need someone like that to arrive with bad intentions at the LB position. |

I do not understand why we abandoned it early in this season but if the Triplett article is correct we're going to see a lot more of the 2013 style defense in the coming weeks. |

Re: secondary
He is O.K., I want him to hit more, I like his pop.It has took a long time for me to warm up to him I hope he stays solid. Average can be good.

Corey White graded out our best CB, Vaccaro our best DB. Byrd with another negative grade. |
