Should DE'S , Wilson / James / Evans make an impact along with the returns of Rocky and Rogers we should have a top 5 Defense . NO INJURIES !!!!!

This is the part I don't buy. Those 3 are serviceable at best. Griffin is on the downside of his career and neither Golston or Montgomery have established themselves as dominate in any way. I could be proved wrong if the ends have really good years. The double teams will be on Taylor and Carter and that leaves the tackles in one on one situations or the other team has to keep in backs and TEs to block. Thebest scenario as you pointed out is NO INJURIES! If either one of our stud DEs goes down that opens up so much more for the other teams O.

I did not say that they would be dominant , however we were a top 10 D last year . Should Montgomery and Golston Improve enough this year that both could start and give C. Griff. some more relief , we should be stronger this year up front . I would love for a stud DT or DE to be sitting on the board when our first pick comes up next April . Would like another Tre Johson to be drafted also .

I agree, except that Griffin, when healthy, still demands a double team. That helps Taylor and Carter a lot. Last year there were times when Montgomery was demanding a double team as well. You can't double team everyone. Our pass rush should be pretty good if we stay healthy and Gohlston and Montgomery have improved.
