Oof. That off-season/TC hype didn't translate well.

For our defense to escape bottom 10 hell, we’ll need those two rookie pass rushers to over perform.

Lets hope that happens.

Very happy with what I saw from the 1st team overall and the rookies.

T-Mac, Scourton, & Thornton all flashed.

People getting upset at our defensive 3s & 4s sucking are strange. 

The vast majority of those players wont even be here in 3 weeks.

Promising start- hoping for another good joint practice and game against Houston 

[Seltzer]

Do you have a grade for Corey Thornton?

I didnt notice CSW really one way or another. I guess according to PFF he wasnt good against the run? I don't remember him giving up any passing plays

He was a first round grade for a reason, we got our edge rusher

Not really for this year given the two other veterans ahead of them.  We will really need the interior linebackers to overperfom.

Knowing this board by week three they will both be busts... even though everyone knows Pass rushers and Dline take 3 years to adjust to the NFL
