For the love of God ! go after Vic Fangio and re-invent the new version of the Dome patrol

... wishful thinking.

I have come to the conclusion that we are going to only hire a DC that has no say over picking their own staff to make our D consistantly stout. Whoever gets him as a DC will have a great D and a consistant one but it want be us.

Well, Rob Ryan did give us the 4th ranked defense two years ago... I see no logical reason he can't do it again, unless injuries hit hard again

It would be nice to actually acquire the pieces to run a 3-4 defense... But for some reason we need 37 safeties instead.

I thought it was over kill as well. Until the season started and we needed 36 of them.

We wouldnt need 50 million dollar safeties if we could bolster the front 7. Just look at Roman Harper in Carolina. He's not great but he certainly looks a lot better there then he did the last 3 years here. I hope we go front 7 in at least 2/3 of our first 3 picks. Dont get me wrong Byrd will be a stud, but look at the front 4 he had in buffalo. He could do whatever he wanted with those monsters on the line.

Whoever the DC is(it will be RR according to Payton) needs talent and the right assistant coaches who can teach.

it is what it is. plug a few holes and give the rest to the offense. defense is not getting us back to the promise land.

NT and CB and if there is anything left maybe a LB

There was all this hype about this new look D. And we didn't get it.

I thought for sure they were going to replace OLB with Safties and have them come up and use a box and press like Seattle does and nothing like that.
