...because we didn't have good NT play and/or our ILBs were taken out of the play due to bad instincts, getting caught up in the trash, or whatever it was that had Lofton/Hawthorne allowing RBs to gash us right where our ILBs should be.

Not because the LBs were too small. Maybe that'll be the reason if the bad rush defense continues this year, but it was not why we suck stopping the run recently.

Re: 2015 draft??

March...

Gotta disagree...

I think we gotta stay with getting bigger on the defensive line and continue with bigger linebackers...

Only if the big LBs can be in the right place and make a tackle. Versus running themselves outta the play and then racking up some stats by chasing them down from behind.

Re: 2015 draft??

Reading reports from Miami's Pro Day earlier and there are two storylines: First, Sean Payton is in love with Phillip Dorsett. Second, Denzel Perryman injured his hamstring but no official word on severity yet... Some rumors it may be significant.

Phillip Dorset 5-foot-10 and 184 pounds ran a 4.25 40 dam but what happens when a nfl safety nails him to dead stop at that 4.25. i guess we are thinking of quick screening the nfl to death till he and cook get knocked out.
