Their analytics can't tell you that.

I personally don't see us losing anything by going from Morris to Jones. If Jones fumbles at the same rate he did last year, then problem. Otherwise, as he's drilling on it hard, no problem.

The DL I do have questions about, but our run defense sucked even with Knighton and Hatcher in there. PFF has no basis to conclude that rotating in Golston, Reyes, Ionnidis and Paea will be the same, worse, or better.
Spot on, on all three points.
