Halo

Everyone said we needed change and beefed up o-line and d-line. We definitely have change a lot, the o-line is overloaded with new and veteran talent, and we shuffled, traded and cut where we could.

Only place I'm not sure about is the d-line, but with the addition of drafted linebackers and safeties in the Rob Ryan 3-4 I think there will be some new wrinkles.

Player performance at all positions on defense, except a few, was uninspired and poor in 2014, which is in stark contrast to 2013. This is a make or break year for Rob Ryan and his scheme in general in New Orleans. Defense repeating the uninspired play from last year will get Ryan canned.

That said, if Drew actually has time in the pocket with a beefed up o-line, defense will only need to be average.
