... 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.

Same could be said of Harper. That front 7 up in Carolina is one of the best in the NFL.

But think of what our 50 million dollar safety could do with a decent front 7

If we could get to where Byrd has nothing to worry about but coverage

Thats what I'm saying. Now that we have him lets use him by making that front seven something to be reckoned with! I would not be mad if we drafted an ILB, DT, or OLB/DE straight in our first 3 picks.
