Guess we'll see.  We haven't made any major upgrades on D and we lost arguably one of if not the best player in Reddick.  Stephan for Horn should cancel to some extent.

Using your logic our D should be bottom 3rd in points again. 

We will. I never said it was a terrible D just not top 10 like some stand by. It doesn't hold up. My criticism was the run game side and if Snow would adapt it or force it like I fear. That's it. 

IDK, the O was so bad but the D had it's issues. We also had a much easier schedule last year and our QB situation is not solved by any means. I would be thrilled to see the D vastly improve I just am skeptical on Snows scheme from last year which would look great in school and average in the NFL...just my opinion. Huge fan of where the DBs should play under Wilks and Chinn at SS this year.

Woods will help a lot IMO.  He lets Chinn become more of a box SS when needed which is like upgrading two positions for one player.  I think Littleton and Wilson are both upgrades at the LB spot as well which will help our run defense.  Reddick was a great pass rusher, but having him and Burns on the field at once really hurt our run defense.  Hopefully YGM starts opposite of Burns and helps our run defense.  Ioaninidis could he a solid pick up at the DT sport as well, because Jones was a disappointment last year.  I see FS Woods, MLB Wilson, SLB Littleton, RDT Ioanidis, RDE YGM as 5 new starters (yes YGM played last year, but was limited behind Reddick and with injuries) and Chinn getting to play his more natural position. If you include Horn we have nearly as many new starters and repeat from last year.

Haynes is ready to be in a real rotation next year. He is a solid pass rusher, and he’s already proven that. Great to have guys like Haynes in backup roles.

In spot duty, his impact is felt for sure. When he was coming out of college and I learned he broke the Ole Miss sack record (which was held by Greg Hardy iirc) I knew eventhough he was a bit undersized he would make his presence known here. 

He just needs more playing time. Going to need him to develop his run defense but I was happy to hear he resigned. 

Luvu and Haynes should make a nice rotation. Both have a non stop motor. 

Bonus: Neither of the above have peaked. 

Luvu though..... Wouldnt suprise me at all if he was top 15 in impact on limited snaps from what I saw last year. He was literally everywhere.

    • What's wrong with Damien Lewis? He played pretty well last year.
    • Official NFL Cuts Tracker Deadline for roster cuts is Tuesday, August 26th. At this moment (Friday, August 22nd) the only interesting names I see are... K Caden Davis (BUF) RB Ameer Abdullah (SF) WR Equanimeous St. Brown (SF) WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (NO) LB Khaleke Hudson (TEN) Abdullah, St. Brown, Peoples-Jones I don't exactly think we should cut anybody for but it was just interesting seeing those names. Khaleke Hudson was on the Panthers' practice squad last year I believe and might have even gotten called up? And of course, Caden Davis just because of the question mark at kicker this season for the team.
    • I'll say 6/10. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole. For all the hype surrounding Sanders/Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
