Defense is two starters away from being very good.

Boston is fine. His tackling issues wouldn’t be so obvious with a competent MLB. Boston should’ve had that interception at the end of the first half and those are the plays he has to make.
 

I actually think our biggest need is an end to pair with Burns. Burns is special and he’s literally our entire pass rush

I think we need another 1-2 DLs.  Our front 4 is struggling at creating constant pressure.  I do not mind getting another top DT who can bull rush.

We have two high impact rookies on the line, one of which didn't play yesterday. Rarely do rookies get pressure. But they do show the type of potential that gets them there relatively quickly, as soon as next season. 

As is, I'd say our defensive line can be very good with the personnel currently on the team.

Middle Linebacker. 

Free Safety.

 

If these two positions can be upgraded this offseason, this defense will rank top 10 for many years. I a not even talking superstars at FS and MLB. I am just talking average starters in the NFL. That would be a huge step up. 

Also need some depth

I would like to add another DT though Kerr and whoever else was in rotation yesterday vastly out performed anything Short has done for years.

MLB is the biggest need. The first time we have said that in like 15 years or more.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
